Larry, the Farmtek anchors do appear to be very similar to the Rohn Anchors.
They are not hot dip galvanized so that is one difference.
What we are seeing here is the cost impact of a value added process, hot dip
galvanizing, with an added transportation cost to the dealer and a retail
price markup.

Yesterday I learned that a local ham had bought some earth anchors from
Texas Towers for $45 each.
He could have saved a lot of money by purchasing them here:
http://www.farmtek.com/farm/supplies/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10052&storeId=10
001&langId=-1&division=FarmTek&productId=18252
These have the same rating as the ones Texas Towers sells for less than 1/3
the price.
I have been using them for years.
