Haha, Guys, the prices here in Qatar are insane they charge 300 Rs for a 1 foot cable. I envision it would cost less than half that price in India. I study in tiruchirapalli and I can get parts there at a fraction of the cost.

LOL. True that. Usually the Rich Qataris are the customers in these hobby shops in Qatar so they don't mind paying a lot...
