What constantly amuses me in this hobby is how manufacturer's and dealers of gear price their wares. It would seem that here we have another perfect example of...
what's the maximum we could possibly ask for this product so that we can border on the ludicrous, BUT still make a few sales to the "suckers". What i do understand about this marketing strategy is that it will appeal to a minority and may ( or perhaps might) have a modicum of success with that minority. However, I have to wonder if these guys have ever thought about the opposite marketing strategy, which would be to sell to the majority and price accordingly thereby potentially selling
MUCH larger numbers. This strategy would naturally NOT involve making a
KILLING on each piece sold. OTOH, it wouldn't have the allure of being so audacious. Just a thought, LOL.
