Really? you think so? Lets see 250/25 = 10...

If a pair lasts me 2 years, thats 20 years for $250. I think that will last me.

Oh, how much to replace the VS if/when they go into the soup?

DOn't get me wrong, spend your $$$ how you wish, but economicaly, the argument doesn't work.


BTW, I use $2 Job lot pliars that and a can of wd40 lasts me quite a while. I figure at least 125 years for $250...
