I just got back from a trip in Cambodia. As we drove around I started noticing that the shanty stores of the poorer people had what looked like yeti style ice chests to store their cold products they were trying to sell. When we got to the fish farm we are assisting with they had ice chest of the same style but it was the size of a medium sized deep freezer. The appear to be made out of the same roto-molded durable kayak material as the Yeti's and keep ice just as long. They did have different hinges and not "bear proof" latches. They were made in Thailand. The price of the deep freezer sized was $140.00. The price of one comparable to the Yeti Roadie was about $50.00. If someone had enough money to invest in a container load of these to America, they could probably make a decent amount of extra change.
