FYI , Rtic flipped the script on Yeti and the rest of the high end cooler world last year and bought all the Yeti patents from the government at the end of the Yeti 5 year hold. This is why they are so cheap, Now Rtic collects royalties from all the other companies including Yeti. Rtic cannot sale in the open retail market for a undisclosed amount of time is why they only sale online for now. Articles where in WSJ and Forbes back around last Thanksgiving or Christmas

I've heard about 18 different stories on ways they're getting away with this or how the company started. They all sound like BS to me.
