Expensive Devices
KurtG wrote:
Why are some things so expensive? A 1/2 hp chiller runs over a $1000. The BTU's don't even rival a window AC unit which runs under $100. Or, an office water cooler that runs $150. Ballasts over $800. Protein Skimmer for $250. Seems like a simple plastic device. Sure they need to be rugidized for a salt environment, but Jeez! There doesn't seem to be enough competition in these products. Or, am I missing something? --Kurt I just got my skimmer. I'll quit whining now. It's f'n huge! I thought it would be 4" in diameter, but it's more like 12". --Kurt
