| | | | | | I looked at a couple of different pricing schemes. They were all way too much. You could US Mail all 4 o' them critters for less than 7 bucks. The way I figure, it's just not worth it. IMO ~M (24 years ago, 6-Aug-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

Not until after you'd bought a box and some plastic peanuts, and paid someone to pull them from inventory, stuff 'em in the box, top it off with peanuts, seal it up, and label it, you couldn't. It doesn't seem likely, at their prices, but it's (...) (24 years ago, 6-Aug-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

| | | | | | (...) You're forgetting the fact that online stores don't have to pay for store overhead like the ones in the mall, and if they're selling most things at mall-store retail prices, where's that extra $ going? ~Mark (24 years ago, 7-Aug-00, to lugnet.market.shopping)

| | | | (...) At least they don't jack up their prices above retail, or put non outlet stores in outlet malls, both KB tricks.
