Tried garage sales, bunk of crap.
What I'm "driving at" is why pay $9 for a name brand lure that comes out of the same factory as the no name brands? Skip the store and brand markup, go straight to the source. When you see prices at $1 per lure which resells for 5-10x that price, it's nuts.
And I've caught fish on $1 Wal-Mart special spinnerbaits just as much as one that costs 5x that.
"Get what you pay for" is not hardly what it used to be. I can buy a $250 exhaust from China that is the same quality as a $600 exhaust from the US.....because I've done it. The China one actually fit better too. Considering so much of our stuff is made out of the US, I don't believe in that stupid saying any more. In fact, I wouldn't even buy a US car any more, they're all bloated pieces of crap.
