I said they are adding no extra value than if I were to buy it myself...The import costs would be the same whether i buy it or he/she buys it so that doesn't even come into the equation...warehouse and warranty costs to a point agreed .

I also agree that there should be a profit for the importer , but a 80% markup?

The only real value being added by the importer is that he's taking the trouble to put in the order rather than me. Something that can be done in 2 minutes.
