Fake RRP on cables. A Joke
I would like to address the Fake RRP that is rife among cable makers. I would say that the practise is unethical and makes the legit companies look bad. Some companies gives 50% off straight away, others ask you to make them an offer.
Some of these companies put the rrp of their products at 300-1000% of what they really sell for. I am not arguing at what they really sell for, what i am annoyed about is that the real sale price is a secret!!!!!
How do we judge what the second hand value of a product to be. For example a cable is rrp of 10k, but sold at real market price of 2k new. It is then advertised secondhand for 2k or nearest offer. I see these examples a lot.
How can we have more transparency!!!
A lot of discussions on the cable forum is so confusing, because the participates are sometimes comparing product A which is really sold at 2k while product B is RRP of 10k but sold at 2k. People in the discussion will say the comparison is unfair, but the Thread starter is afraid to reveal their real purchase price.
Why are we afraid to reveal on the forums what the real purchase price of these cables are? We are suppose to help each other. Or do we really think that we are the only ones that got that 90% discount !!!!!
