So you import these?

On our drive around the island, we stopped at a farm that raises Alpacas. I remembered it from a few years ago. They now have a lot more heads than before. They also had a llama. You can’t miss the farm. If you’re driving clockwise around the island, it’ll be a little while after the English camp. In any case, they have a store. They sell various items from Alpaca wool: beautiful sweaters, dresses and Teddy bears. The price tag says ~80 USD. The other tag says “Made in Peru”. Peru? Yeah, Peru. Peru as in “not made from the wool of the Alpacas on the farm”. Peru as in “imported from South-America Peru”. Hmmm… Ebay!!! Yup, great reminder that if it’s both imported and not custom, you too can probably find it. Average price for identical Alpaca Teddy bear? 20 USD.
