So you're "merely" paying about a 100% markup instead of a 1000% markup as you think. Of course, I've never had any problems with fiberboard pegboard, even hanging things like string trimmers, FUBARs, etc from them, so I don't know why people want to pay the extra money.

For $20 of pegboard and paint??? For that price the least they could do was include stars. Good lord there must be a lot of patriotic suckers out there. $234!?!?! For $20 of pegboard and paint???
