Default SuperCheap not so Cheap???

Has anyone found that Supercheap Auto is not really super cheap, or even cheap, but rather expensive??

I went to buy some coil spring compressors today and they were $67.99 marked down from $79.99 (part of their Easter Promo), and they looked rather dare I say it 'cheap'.

So I thought I see our local tool store and Ag supply shop, they had Trades Quality Ones same style but with a lifetime warranty for $34.99.

This prompted me to do a bit more of a price comparison and found that even with the Easter discounts their prices were way higher for inferior quality tools and parts.

LED trailer lights were about half the price and were brand names at the independent local store, where Supercheap(??) sold their own branded ones, Jockey wheels were about half the price also.
