Exactly what I was thinking. Apple is taking advantage of the caste system, an unforgivable Offense in a western company.

1.5 times a pittance is still a pittance.

I don’t know why this is being down voted. India is as corrupt as the mafia. You can do anything you want as long as you pay off the right government official. That’s why their environment is so screwed up – – they have regulations against pollution but they’re not enforced and differ from region to region. What sense does that make, when we all have to share the same water and air?

I don’t get it. Most Old plastics from the 60s and 70s were quite rigid and inflexible, and sitting around for 50 years usually makes them brittle as well. Plastics have actually improved a lot since then, so I’m thinking this basket of yours must’ve been pretty expensive when it was new to be such high quality. 🤷🏽♂️

Genuine Ralph Lauren polo‘s are a great deal, even if they’re sort of expensive. I have several that are over 20 years old (1996-2001 era) but you’d never know it by looking at them— classic style. A large should fit you well, and you can find new or slightly used ones on eBay for cheaper than a department store.

Real Ralph Lauren Polos will last. I have several from 1996-2000 that just won’t die. Comfortable as hell, too. Check EBay.
