To quote Lee Iaccoca(sp?) "We charge those prices because people pay it"

I'd rather my 2000 Honda 4-wheeler be in the neighborhood of around $600.00, but it wasn't. Most people wouldn't have had the use to realize the difference in costs for the 4X4, 400 and whatever CC engine, full floorboards, electronic shift, shaft drive, or Honda's proven reliability. But for me, I'll probably have it for 10 years, abuse the heck out of it, and hope it lasts.

A bow isn't much different. Most people would never tell the differences between a $400.00 bow and a $800.00 bow, but some do, some can, and if they have the money, it's probably worth it. I personally feel the price of land and automobiles have increased just as substantially, if not more.

It's kind of funny, but I remember how much my PSE Fire-Flite seemed to cost when I basically mowed lawns to buy it in 1988. Now looking back, the $223.00 seems pretty nice compared to todays prices. What about some 18 year old buying his first bow for $500.00 or more, how's that going to look 14 years from now??

Guess it's all relative.
