Why does a partial appliance cost more than a whole one????
Have I mentioned that I hate my oven? So I thought I might look for an electric wall oven that I could install in a wheeled cabinet and have it be portable for cooking outside in summer and right here next to me in the winter.
It seems wall ovens cost more than a whole range that comes already IN A "CABINET". :wtf:

If it requires it's own assembly line and the line makes fewer units then the cost per unit is gonna go up.
I are a college graduet and know these thin's.

but yeah some do - they don't twist open but I have seen some that are sort of like spacers towards the back of the rear passenger windows.
I drive a couple vehicles that still have the old style triangle rotate/twist vent windows. Then there are the small vent windows that only open an inch or two with the little devices that pinch your fingers - as in the side windows in king cab trucks.

5. There must be some secret retail rip-off at work here. |

I recently found out that a one-way flight from Romania to the U.S. costs almost twice as much as a round-trip flight. Oven, car window, or flight, I'm extremely suspicious/paranoid. :tinfoilhat:

6. oh yeah flights - that's another one |

almost ALWAYS cheaper for round trip - and of course you can't sell (or even give away) the part you don't need
