Title: Braid rip Off in SA
Post by: tkei on May 09, 2011, 09:13:36 AM

We all know we are ripped off when it comes to tackle in sa, but the level of rip off is rediculous.
A friend was coming back for a holiday from the states so i got him to buy me 3 spools of Power pro briad. 2 80lb spools (300 yds) and 1x 30lb spool (300 yds).
In EL a spool of power pro 80 lb is R795.
The bill for all 3 spools was $90. At 7.5 to the $ thats R675 for 3 spools.
Come on we are being more tyhan just ripped off.
