Is it just me?
I realize that the original question was posted by a new person here on this forum, but there are RULES and forum policies that ask us NOT TO DISCUSS pricing in an open area of this forum.
It is no wonder this industry continues to spiral downward when even the people on here who should know better, continue to spout pricing like these things don't have a negative effect on RETAIL sales.
When someone asks a legitimate question in an open forum about pricing, the FIRST AND ONLY response should be to refer them to the proper area to discuss pricing issues.
That is what the membership is about. Protecting the wholesale values of what we produce, and sharing [within the industry ONLY] some of the things that those of us who have been in the business for over a week feel make our products MORE THAN just a commodity.
