Why so expensive ?

I'm looking for a new canopy for my boat , the one I have on at the moment is probably the original (15 years) and its starting to tear and looks very faded and well worn . The size of it is about 1.5 x 1.5 meter . So I did some ringing around for some quotes , and almost fell of my chair when they said expect to pay around $ 750 - 950 :wall: I think its waaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much money for it . I know people need to make money and nobody work for free but it is way to expansive !

G'day tibman I bought one of these on Ebay on the weekend. Looks ok for $100 delivered :thumbsup: I will let you know what they are like once it's been delivered. Here is the link http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/Boat-Bimini- ... 2916621%26" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
