Re: [installer] WHY OH WHY 125 dollars for a pole ?

A agree with the other about the price. I installed my own three years ago and it still is rock solid but I saved little if any money. Do have the satisfaction of knowing it's not going to move unless a tree falls on it.

For me, saving money was not the issue...but having a firm pole in the ground before they showed up. I used steel pipe set in concrete...still standing, vertically, since beginning days of WB.
