Retail?

" real estate appreciates "

Were have you been lately?

I guess you think 12" of snow is proof there is no global warming? An
anomalous variance from the trend does not in itself (other factors might - like
permanently loosing one's industrial base) change the endurance of the trend
over time. I'm telling you, buy land in Arizona and Florida, your grandchildren
will thank you - it worked for Bob Hope.

Do we really need to compare the enduring value of land with the slow rot and
decay of capacitors, resistors, power supplies and switches.

Any way, Jameson's on the rock and Bill Evans starting to play, aah!

This thread separates the honest from the dishonest sellers. Why inflate retail price to get a better sales price? People will remember the names on this blog, and may deceide not to buy from those who lie through omission of the truth. Sometimes it's better to look elseware.

Polk, I think there is a difference in philosophies articulated here but labeling somebody dishonest might be a stretch. What do you think?

It is hard to speak to motive, or what lies in a person's heart, but for some the act would seem dishonest so they would not do it or at least be open and transparent about it, for others they see no such conflict or duty to disclose, and one must conclude that coming from that perspective they are not being dishonest, they just see the situation differently. Then of course there are those who know or think it is wrong, but do so anyway because it is to their advantage and I think we can say that they are dishonest as to motive and intent.
