Default RE: Bowtech questions

Is "value" a dirty word, Jeff?

What about asking questions to make sure the price is commensurate with the cost? What's wrong with that?

Query: If you're in the building business, would it be kosher for you to call all the other builders in the area and say "Hey, whaddya say we all bump the prices of our buildings up by 50%? That way, we'll have the market cornered. Nobody is allowed to charge less than $X, and we'll have our vendors jack up the prices on anyone who tries to undercut us."

How about letting the market bear the price - without tampering. How about cutting the crap with the protected dealer areas and price fixing?

Fair is a very subjective word. "Fair" to the owner of bowtech may mean, whatever the price needs to be forhim to net $5 million this year in gross pre-taxprofits. "Fair" to the consumer might be 5% over cost.

So what's fair? You tell me.

Is it "as much as possible."

"Fair" to me means - "as cheap as possible."

Nobody mind Jeff - he's angling hard for the next "corporate staff" gig.
