Topic: Damn what a profit

[wardenerd]

I have been looking for the wingnut that holds the top of the airfilter box to the box on my1977 CB550F.  I have one but one is missing.  I put it on here and I sent an email to Western Hills.  They have them $19.99.  I know why they have them in stock.  Sad part is I may have to pay that to get one.

What thread is that?  Did you try McMaster?

That is legal in the USA.

They can charge anything they want.
Some business owners are like a black hole.
No amount of money is enough.

You are paying for them to have a new swimming pool at their MCmansion.

Many businessmen have a formula. They charge 5 times for any item over
what it actually cost them.

These list for about $10 but they must be scarce.  They are shaped strangely more like key with threads then a wing nut.  Oh well maybe somebody has an extra floating around.
