We're HBers, right? Does the price of BudMilCurse really matter? And, BTW, they are each a huge multinational corporation which thrives by buying the little guys and killing their product. I bought a 15- and an 8-gallon keg at a local liquor store ($15) - the employee said the distributor wouldn't accept them back because the bar codes didn't match up. So, their fancy bar code tracking system cost them 2 good kegs, to my gain. I also bought another pair of 15s from Sabco. I feel a lot better about the cheap ones than I do about the $400 that Sabco charged for a MT and a universal kettle. Not that it mattered to my welder, he wasted the fittings' threads on the universal kettle just as thoroughly as the $10 kettle's fittings. Thankfully, I never let him touch the Sabco MT!
