    Re: Economy, boating. and fishing gear.

    WE Pay what the MARKET DEMANDS.......PERIOD.

    If you want a NEW truck bad enough, you're going to pay WHATEVER to get that new truck. Supply and DEMAND. Supply is SUPER HIGH now, and they need to dump the supply, so prices drop sometimes so they LOSE money, but losing money on a 30K truck is STILL better than NOT selling it at all.

    It is all a game.........some play it better than others.

    I'll GUARANTEE you this........if EVERYONE who wanted a RANGER bassboat this year decided to NOT buy one this year.......later this year, you'd be able to buy it at a HUGE discount..........that is how it works.

    Simple Economics here guys.

    Later,

    Geo

    Geo thanks for the economy lesson, understanding simple supply and demand is fine, but taking advantage of the countries people just because you can is still wrong. Always has been and always will be. I guess I'm stupid because I've never sold anything personally in my entire life that I thought was overprised. I just don't agree with taking advantage of good folks, there is a word for it...........ready.......... HONESTY. Unfortunately this country and it's people feel like they should just lay the smack on everybody and that's justifiable because that's just good business to make it while you can. I'll go to my grave thinking the way I do, right or wrong. I think the mentality of what we are talking about is the reason America is now reaping what it has sowed.

    Mark,
    Greed is easy (especially in business)....integrity and honesty are more tough. I have always believed that the real test of integrity or honesty is when noone is watching.

    Funny thing that word "economics"....almost sounds like an excuse more than a reason.

    Re: Economy, boating. and fishing gear.

    I agree 100% about the big discounts at the Stores during Christmas time for buyers.... I've now come up with a plan when needing clothes to wear...I will only shop for them during X-Mas time...Unless I really need something fast. But I went out with the wife and when we entered into such & such Store. She was attracted to a rack of clothes that were 80% off the marked price. I actually found a pair of Lee Jeans for $ 4.99 that fit me....Can you believe that price... We searched the racks top to bottom and found several good deals from 80 to 70% off.... So now I got my plan and I'm sticking to it....
