I was just at TSC to drop off a battery core and get my 10.65$ back, when i decided to window shop the cultivator's and plows while awaiting a manger to sign my refund papers.
I noticed that the subsoiler and the middle buster each use the same frame, and the only difference between the two is that the sub soiler has a small chisle point that is about 2" wide and 8" long, and appears like you can flip it to the new edge by pulling the 2 plow bolts out... now.. the middle buster has the wider 'shovel' point on it.. about 8" wide at the top and say.. 8" long tip to back.. same 2 plow bolts hold it to the sub assembly.
Now.. one would think they would either be similar priced since the fram is the same.. or perhaps the middle buster might be a few bucks more since the 'shovel' tip is a few ounces more metal than the chissle tip...
NOPE!
The sub soiler with chisle tip is 150$.. the middle buster with shovel tip is 125$... what gives. Heck.. why not buy the cheaper middle buster and then just buy a replacement chissle tip.. it's the same frame and the same 2 bolts/pattern?
