I guess you would be pissed if you came in my Photography Studio. I charge $150 for 6 pieces of paper:D

It's good you were able to save a little money.

I'm not saying that paying $37 would be a fair price. What I'm saying is that making $100 profit off of something like that is rediculous. There is fair and then there is just plain crazy.

How do you know it's $100 PROFIT? see: other posts regarding "cost of doing business". They pay their taxes, employees, building costs, etc out of each and every job they do, and try to take some home after that. So I doubt it's profit. :D

Yeah my families safety is resting in an $11 part because it's an OEM replacement part and I don't need beefed up parts for something that isn't seeing excessive stress. I'm sorry but that tie-rod end is not going to just mysteriously break.

I have to respectfully disagree. Yeah, it might fit, but who knows the quality of the casting/forging-- maybe its up to OEM spec, maybe not. At any rate, you get what you pay for, and Moog stuff doesn't cost a million bucks. Tie rod ends DO see a ton of stress, lots of side loads from road irregularity that wreak havoc on bad machining. And if you ever break one you'll wish you'd spent the extra $10 hahahah cars steer like sh*t with one wheel flopping all over. :D
