[Elecraft] Fwd: Re: Price increase in mid Sept.

[David Gilbert]

Actually, comparing any company with any other company that builds a 
similar product is perfectly valid.  How they may be structured should 
not be a consideration in your buying decision ... at least it isn't in 
mine.  I managed a large electronics business for many years and the 
last thing I expected my customers to judge me on was anything besides 
performance/quality/reliability/price/delivery/service/dependability. 
That's all that matters, and they're all visible to the customer. 
Elecraft manages that balance pretty well which is why I buy their 
products, but I can't see myself cutting them any slack simply because 
their competitors might have better leverage to supply me with what I want.
