are these for CF hoods? $286.65 seems like a pretty good price for a 4th gen CF hood..

It's unfair to compare us to Ebay because those companies will buy in bulk of 50 or so. We on the other hand can't do that, just too much of one product...

Why start an attempt when you cannot beat the competitor's pricing even with a GD?

Jeez, I can understand peoples frustrations with the prices but its been stated about 5-10 times that people can find it cheaper else where. Maybe some of you are hoping he can drop the price or maybe some just want to express your shock for the prices.

But those who feel the price is too high, then just dont post and let this GB be for buying people. Makes no sense to make a post that just states your opinion on the price. Not trying to flame anyone but let the man try to sell his hoods.
