I guess it comes down to how the written word is expressed and interpeted on
these types of forum... I'm sure you got the point (pardon the pun).

It has often amazed me (I should note for the sake of honesty here I work

$50 on a fly rod and so on and then start to bitch and moan about a few
cents on the hook.


I don't know of anyone who complains about paying
a few cents per hook, given that in the US we are
approaching - admittedly for small quantities -
half a dollar to a dollar for many hooks, depending
on size, etc.
