wow, that's a lot of info to glean from my post, none of which was my point. If that's what makes ya feel better, good for ya.

That's how I read it. What do I know though. I'm still using my 10 year old igloo.

Still waiting to get my free yeti. Problem is everyone else keeps chaining them in their beds.

Kidding.

Sigh.
Y'all need a range day.

Another reason for me not to buy Yeti products. From the Statesman:


"Austin-based Yeti Coolers is continuing its attack on companies it accuses of making products that are “confusingly similar” to its own, filing suit in federal court against two more competitors.
The maker of high-end coolers and drinkware filed suit Friday against Livingston-based Axis Cups and Irvington, Ala.-based Bayou Ice Boxes, seeking to force the companies to recall existing products and redesign their products going forward. Yeti is also requesting monetary damages. Both cases were filed in U.S. District Court in Austin."

you know what, you're right! Might need to swing by tomorrow.

to those i offended and came across to as elitist, my bad. i'm far from it and dont view anything i have as a status symbol. one thing i've learned in my short life, there's always someone with bigger, faster, better, more, more expensive etc. Except for maybe Bill Gates and the other select few at the very very top.

I own a Yeti and I like it. I was disappointed that they posted 30.06 and 30.07 signs, but it sounds like they've reversed their stance on that. The arguing about them being overpriced is hilarious though. They're clearly not overpriced. If they were, they wouldn't have built a business off of their coolers or a flagship store for signage to be placed. I own a Yeti for the same reason I built a BCM rifle over a budget build AR15; because I wanted to and I could.

You're upset with a company that is protecting their design?

still can't carry in a 51% location.

Dear Michael,


Sorry we were incorrect on the sign that says you cannot carry on the premises, we've now changed to the correct sign that says you cannot carry on the premises. This is an outdoors company that has a bar on the location of the retail store. WHY?

But is the 51% separate business separated physically...and therefore would allow carry.????? Like a bar in a mall doesn't make the whole mall 51%. In the Yeti case, it's not Yeti that has the 51% license.

I'd have to have a couple of drinks in me to pay those prices for a cooler

 

[stdreb27]

Lol. So their counsel is incompetent?
And the tabc passed them when they shouldn't have?

After buying one of their coolers, you'll be damned lucky to afford a couple of drinks!!

Wow! They must not understand their customer base at all...sad
