[TheForge] pricing

[dan tull]

I think it IS marketing. You are developing customers. Making known where 
they can get items better than Pier One.
Hell, the poker went for $320, and I would have made a set for a little 
more. The second bidder gets one for 10% less than their last bid.
How would you price something to someone who has a stable of polo ponies?
