Thieves..


I stopped by Digits today (formerly known as Mac City, or iCity, or whatever) to buy a USB Dock Connector for my iPod. It's the cable that connects the iPod to a computer so you can sync your songs etc.

I was shocked to find that it costs KD 15. That's right. KD 15 for a lousy cable. What the hell?

KD 15 = Approximately 1/6 of the price of an iPod, 1/2 of the price of a small iPod (shuffle etc), a meal for one @ Gaucho Grill, a ticket on Jazeera Airways, 7 car washes at Dabboos, a week's worth of shopping at Sultan Center, a basic no-frills cellphone, a bed (or a couch) from IKEA, and the list goes on..

Or you could spend 15 KD on a cable.
