Does this price make sense????

[brettagostini]

I need to replace the piston rings on my 1981 Evinrude 140hp.

I found them at this website:

http://www.crowleymarine.com/brp_parts/diagrams/14542.cfm

According the a person at the website, the price is PER CYLINDER. $38.45 for two piston rings??? $153 for new piston rings???? about 2.5 ounces of metal???

Can this be correct? Say it ain't so!

2.5 oz of metal + the word "marine" = $38.


So.

If it had "automotive" instead of 'marine" they would cost $76.00.
