Why India didn't work out

So the plan was to buy a pair of tires (hopefully cheap) in India and bring them home on the carrier. This is why that plan fell apart:
1) We had no supplies shipped out to the carrier, so I'd have to hire my own boat with a crane on it to get them out here. (which would have negated any savings I may have found)
2) Chennai is a city of 5 million spread out over a very large area. Trying to find a place to sell tires would have been difficult, and taken away time from shopping for the family.
3) Sea state sucked, and we secured liberty early.
4) Chennai is a... well, it's not a nice place. I just want to get out of here.

Obviously, I'll be buying them at home. Happy Easter everyone.
 

Shame it didn't work out for you. Next time try picking up several sets cheap, and sell the extras when you get home with them. That way, you should be able to recover the cost of any boat hiring you had to do, and maybe you could even make a little money over the cost of all the tires, including your own set! Just an idea.
