Flap,
No offense taken nor was it disrespectful....I also think your nice guy! Cost is relative to quality and quality is relative to comfort and fuctionalty and both are relative to longevity and productivity in what we do.
Quality especially is critical as the environment breeds abuse and the gear has to hold up. All of these factors dictate price because of the workmanship and materials involved. No one should tell another what is best for them whether it be based on application or price. The only thing I know is the better something is thought out and made, the longer it will last and the better it will perform. Kinda like a buying a custom rod or walking into K-Mart and getting one of their combo's....not exactly the same. Same as I said earlier, lesser quality ends up costing more (over time) and not performing as well during the whole time.
Skat,
That is a very good suggestion and one that will probably be incorporated in down the road; good one, thank you!
Nice try on the demo request by the way....your only about 8-12 months too late
Thanks again folks!
