Daylight robbery

[Crusader]

I needed a microSD card and didn't want to wait for 5 days for delivery from online shops. Asked a friend to pick one up since he was going to Oudtshoorn today.

He just got back with a 2GB from a Vodashop there. The price - R189! That's basically twice the price you can get it for online (incl shipping). Oh, well beggars can't be choosers.

Your fault

It is not really daylight robbery, a vodacom shop costs loads more than someone running an online store so the margains need to be high.

I thought i would rub it in a little

8gb for less money add like 50 bucks for delivery but ya buy online rather.

...they have to make their profits somehow...

I was expecting something around R120 or so for a retail shop. Sadly my device won't support SDHC so larger capacities wouldn't work. Guess that's the price I have to pay for living in the middle of nowhere and being impatient.
