You do have a few sites, ahem, who generally don't over-price but sometimes they are damn close to it [a regular, probably Hanes, cotton long-sleeved shirt with a tiny design on the side rockin in at 20 bucks? Are you serious?].

Sometimes you are lucky and find a fair-priced store, ahem and ahem, and you get really happy and warm inside and end up blowing most of your check on it.


shadha-
WHat I hate even more than over-pricing is that if you go to a Pakistani store (sometimes) if you're Pakistani you'll get served BEFORE someone in front of you, or get a discount,etc.
