Repair or replace. That question often comes up here. I had two examples
in the past week.

I have a Rubbermaid mailbox and post that wad damaged in the snowstorms.
Replacement post, delivered $54
New mailbox and post $52

The light under the kitchen cabinet burned out. It is a fluorescent
fixture that takes an F15 bulb
Replacement bulb $6.88
New fixture including bulb $6.96
The fixture is "assembled in USA" too.

Makes one wonder how they do the pricing of this stuff.

the one i love is the ink for my inkjet printer.

printer complete with 4 inks and 2 printheads on amazon.com $98

pkg of 4 inks alone (no print heads) $125.

Yes, twice i've bought new printers, pulled the ink out of the top of
the box and put the rest in the dumpster.
