My brother gets their catalogue and I've looked though it and it

they do have a good selection of stuff, though. I looked at the prices
of their electrical things and saw items there that I thought were
rediculous, and saw things in there that my local marina[s] have for
compatable pricing. But not all things.


Anyone have experience with Overton's


I used to schlep all the way to North Raleigh to buy from them.


These days,


If Ebay or Wal-Mart doesn't carry it, I don't need it.

I'm not a fan of Wal-mart. I really do try to avoind the place, But
for instance. Overtons "large" bow light part #21543 in their
catalogue is $14.99 plus shipping. Walmart has exactly the same thing
for $9.99 + sales tax.


==========================


I really don't understand that thinking. If you don't want to purchase
Chinese made goods from the store, that is one thing, but they also sell
items manufactured in the US.


Sorting them out is the problem.



You offer a reason why people shop their.........better prices


chinese is chinese whether from Walmart or Overtons.
===================

Was the bow light made in China?

You can also be purchasing Chinese goods from Overtons or your local boat
store.

Just read the label. *;-)

Walmart sells plenty of US made goods.- Hide quoted text -

Tho' be it import or US, the identical unit is still cheaper at Wal-
Box.

BTW I did find out that both Overton's and Wall-Box's lights are
Attwoods, made in Taiwan.

Not true at all. No more than you control the interest rate your bank
will charge you on a loan.

You think the Chi-Coms set U.S. Treasury note rates?
