Dude way out of line, your feelings towards dealers and margins is totally off, if we were making a consistant 30% on all transactions we would be lucky.
You miss the point of business it is not the profit made on one sale but the total profit left after you have taken off all of your costs.
So even if we made 30% on a transaction, you lose 3% for credit card paypal. So now you are down to 27% add in freight in for an order and you may lose another 1-2%.
Factor in the cost of rent, salaries, insurance, demo gear, loses on discontinued gear, internet costs, advertising costs what do you think is left?
Guys like you bemoan there are no places left to audition and take care of you when your component or system doesn't sound right but you refuse to allow a dealer to support his or her family and keep the lights on.
I wonder what you do? If someone said you are being paid too much and you deserve to make a fraction of what you make houw you would feel?
