No one is spending your money, what do you care?

Don't look at me. I've got better sense than waste that kind of money on a damn cooler. The fact so many people are buying these stupid things is a testament to the fact we've got a shite ton of people here that have more money than sense.


Yeti is relatively new to the cooler market and one of the less expensive coolers out there. They are no where near as expensive as a lot of other manufacturers that have been around for much longer.

The best thing to come out of the Phillipines is the Lumpia ate so much of this when in the Navy.

Stating the obvious fact that people who lay down hundreds of dollars on a cooler are in fact idiots, is nothing more than making an observation. As for actually caring, I don't. Enjoy your Yeti.

I would like to see you stand on the lid of a Coleman for a couple of hours. Or bolt a tiller console/grab bar to the side of an Igloo. If you think you can do that with cheap cooler, you are, in fact, an idiot. You would shite your chaps if you knew what a custom Fridged Ridged cooler cost.

Adults who run around in pretend motorcycle gangs are pretty dumb. It is an obvious fact that grown men who lay down ten of thousands of dollars on a Harley have a small wiener.

Looks like I've triggered one of those idiots I was talking about. Not only are you an idiot, you're obviously very sensitive to having your idiocy pointed out.

As for my Harley Davidson, let's wait about 10 years and see how it's value has held up compared to your Yeti idiot box.

You're really dumb.

I'm assuming you're smuggling 45 quart coolers. Those can be had for $280 shipped if you know where to look. You're paying $50/each to bring them in on a C130 and trying to sell them for $200. So you're net is only $150 but you still have to store them and clean them up before resale. Time is money, storage is money.

What you fail to realize is the stuff they give out to the locals are things they can not sell. Lids do not fit, improper drain plugs are a common blimpish. So you're trying to sell seconds for $80 off of retail.

The risk reward isn't there.

Edit* I forgot to mention that I think you are full of shite.

Zero risk. All reward.

Even at $80 return on my investment, I'll take it; My guy brings back 25-30 at a time. I get them shipped the home for free with MPS. Might take 4 months, but who cares. Easy money.

You don't get it, the blemish coolers you will be importing aren't worth $200.

I have two and didn't pay a dime for either, so I have been and I will continue to. Thanks for your concern.

Thank you for your concern.

I've tasted the goods. The coolers are top notch, I can assure you.

Just because they're Philippine-made, doesn't mean they're not good quality. Hell, the one you paid $400 for was probably made there.

What's funny is you can't convey tone through text, so thanks for taking my response the wrong way, although that's not really your fault.

If there was a sarcasm font, I would've used it for my previous two posts.

However, this:

Is funny coming from the king of being triggered on the OT.

It's ok. It wasn't until I got a BMW that I realized motorcycles weren't supposed to be poorly engineered pieces of shite. I also don't have to wear a biker costume to fit in or pretend that I am in a gang.
