How come it changed from List Price to Retail Price :?: :?:

There can be a 30 to 40% different between the Prices.

Oh sorry my fault... :( I am basing the price on Anacortes website, so that will be the retail price. Those affected feel free to revise ur estimate. :)

No more sale la. I realised that when I sell to others cheap, others will sell it back expensive to make money.

So no more cheap sale from me. anyway people here are pretty rich thesedays, unlike few years back where most people are students and they can't afford much.

Being a student does not mean they are poor. They may have rich fathers, you know...
