bi-polar, or am i nuts

[rick bell]

boy, that is genesis economics - ah let see, my sales are going in the tube so i'll doubble my
prices to generate more revenue. every look at the FBO auctions? there inventories are immense
and they have gone broke and now the parts are sold at 10% of their reasonable value and
at 1% of the value before they went broke - this is not supply and demand, it's supply with
NO demand.

here is a nice antidote: lived in Belize and at the veggie market a vendor brings in a beautify
cabbage; but he wants five times the going rate. as you can imagine it does not sell right away.
as the cabbage starts to wilt the vendor starts removing the bad leaves and so on and so on
till finally the cabbage becomes the worlds smallest cabbage, but never reduces the price of the cabbage (still five time the market rate).

tell me if i'm wrong; but i do not see any difference. several years back a batter box was $100
and it's $ 200 just for the lid.

i appreciate source suppliers, however at a purchase i should be able to sit down without
feeling pain.
