<p>Still too hot - I´ll have another RBF, Flo. Come to think of it, I start to like it! <br></p><p>[quote user="Robby P."]</p><p> <b>Ulrich..........</b>$20??? Man I hope it poors "gold" <img src="http://cs.trains.com/trccs/emoticons/icon_smile_mischief.gif" mce_src="http://cs.trains.com/trccs/emoticons/icon_smile_mischief.gif" alt="Mischief"></p><p>[/quote] </p><p>I checked my math: It is 8 Euro for a bottle, containing 250 ml. There are 473 ml to a US pint, that´s a factor of 1.89 to convert the bottle into pint. That makes 15.12 Euro to a pint, at an exchange rate of 1.40 $ to 1 Euro that makes it 21.17 $ for a pint. There are 8 pints to a gallon, that makes it <b>169.36 $ to a gallon</b>. </p><p>And you guys are paying 5 bucks a gallon? We pay nearly 34 times more for that stuff. Any questions?</p><p>Now if I buy a gallon at 5.00 $, have it shipped to Germany (bulk freight) at 7.00 $, pay 10% duty on it, sell it for 100 $ (including VAT) that gives me a profit of 70.83 $ on a gallon! If I can sell 500 gallons a month, that´will be a <b>profit of 35,415.00 $</b> <b>every month</b>. Anybody likes to join me?</p><p>[swg] </p>
