We sold toilet paper to Venezuela last year. We sold bundle packs of 48 rolls in 4 inside packs of 12. We sold the bundles for about a dollar over our total cost to manufacture. In all about 4.5 million rolls of toilet paper.

Well, I got emails showing the product on store shelves broken down out of the bundle pack and in the single 12 packs. Each 12 pack was $38.00 US dollars retailing out in their stores. The entire 48 bundle we sold to them was less than $10 each. So they were marking it up over 1000% for retail sale.

Isn't socialism nice?
