The reason I chuckle is every store you walk into today is raping people with profits. Even your local Walmart store. A few days ago I was in Walmart to buy a T3 g4 bulb for my MH. Price $4.75 for one bulb. Now how much profit should someone make off a RV 12 volt light bulb? 20%? 100%? 500%? 1000%? Now if I can buy those bulbs for 95 cents retail elsewhere I am sure Walmart is paying less than that wholesale. Nobody objects. They throw them in their basket and move on. Walmart, my best guess, is making about 1000% profit on that one item. Kind of makes you wonder how many more items that Walmart makes 1000% on and no body complains. Yet some RV dealer tries to make 50 to 60% profit but will bargin if you just ask. I guess I just don't get it. BTW that is a Walmart price. If you buy that bulb at a RV store it may be slightly over $5.00
