My numbers are accurate as of yesterday, not two years ago.

Suddenly the store changes from $1000/box to multiple boxes.
Thats believable, 3 boxes can easily be $1000 worth of shipping and fees.
As for the Purple tangs I am doubtful they are loosing money on them otherwise they wouldnt sell it for that price. Its one of the more successful shops in town, I dont think they are in it to loose.
