Things that make you go... hmmm

I found this timer selling for $19.99



Same website has this other timer, I won't mention names... Icecap... selling for $44.99



Seems to me the same factory in China is making both... makes me mad when I see this kind of thing...

Even at $19.99... you know it's at least a 75% markup...
