International prices...!
You'd be surprised at the amount that these things sell for over the pond. The biggest problem? No local stores to support your needs. The last time I was overseas, there are no Walmarts or easy chain outlets to buy oils or off the shelf things for you to do the "McGyver" repairs.
But, in some areas, you can get them a lot cheaper. In South America, you can find better deals there than you can here in the states. Over in the European countries, a lot more expensive. But, the cost of shipping would always keep it from worth your while to purchase in a place other than your home country. Along with tariffs or taxes.........:cheers:
