[R-390] Danger E word again.

I'm sorry to hear you are getting grief on your offer.

The quality of the products you supplied was outstanding.  The powder coated
knobs are an excellent replacement solution for those of us who want knobs
matching the originals but which always look good and don't require periodic
re-painting.

The free market economy works fairly well.  People set a price for an item
they want to sell.  If the price is higher than the value perceived by
potential buyers, it won't sell.

A seller can't "over charge" a buyer unless the seller can force the buyer
to buy the product.  It's a simple, self correcting process.

Nobody is putting a gun to any R39x owners and forcing them to buy the
knobs, etc. which you made available previously and are attempting to offer
again.

Price police are pitiful, attention starved human beings.  They have nothing
better to do than trying to inflate their egos by pretending to be price
"blue books" and trying to "save the world" from "paying more than they
should".

Jerry,
I agree with you 10000000% I put a query out about making some new KC/MC
knobs like I did before. You can not believe the BS about ripping people
off on the price. The first go around I had a little better deal. That
machine shop closed down and moved out of state along with the program
going to some unknown place with the old CNC and the guy that did it is
history. So the new price to me is about 300% more plus the powder
coating and the clamp with the screw, nut, washer and then all of the
processing of the orders. If lucky I might make $3.00 on a set. That
makes my time worth about .00001 mil..
Why don't the price police go get off of there fat you know what and
make and market some of the stuff that is so badly needed at the price
they want to pay and watch their bank account go south.
