(Expletive deleted - Joe), everybody's got one and they all stink!
Anyway, here is mine:
First, I agree with J Henry, express yourself, but if you can't own up to it than keep it to yourself. And as for the excuse of being in the business and not wanting to upset your customers, again I say if you can't own up to what you are saying then keep your mouth shut and your fingers stationary.
Second as to the cost discussion:
There is nothing wrong with someone asking any price they feel is appropriate regardless of what they have invested. It is their option to over-price something that they own. I don't think that there is anything wrong with thinking that the price is too high, but is it really necessary to discuss it? That is life in a market like this, however noone is at fault for asking any price. And if they sell it more power too them. Attention folks, sellers don't drive prices up and neither do the buyers that pay them. Though this is a relatively small market, none of the buyer or sellers are significant enough to exhibit market power. This is what happens in a fair market system. All of you who bitch about prices need to move to some communist country and maybe you will decide that it would be good to trade your monthly ration of meat for a bargin truck. I mean really which is worth more????
Prices will go up and down, but the trucks will always be worth it!!!
Have a great day,
Dan
