VRD high prices
APT reasonable low prices with an identical product. Nearly 50 or buck difference.

Hmmm. apt. seems to have raised their prices a bit. I got mines for 90 shipped. Oh well, still better than paying full from VRD.

Dude VRD isnt ripping anyone off. They just simply rebrand it with their name, different packaging and probably slap on a warrenty. They do these things all the time with a lot of products.
