credence good. Cuts both ways

big brands cost cut until nothing is left but shit but still sell fine based on name recognition and the fact they didn't cut the price accordingly.

small boutique brands repackage shit in a bling package with similar sky high pricing.

If you're going to be cynical, don't be such a consumer whore. Don't trust anybody.

bottom line: M1 is different than it was.

        A little bit of lifter noise isn't anything to worry about.  -  EddieWillers  2016-08-08 21:33:16 (249 views)
