Just to add, you yourself set those expectations when you posted estimates of prices that went up dramatically by the time they actually reached the market. Now those original estimates must have been based on crunching the numbers such as the wholesale price from BM, the shipping costs, duty etc. which you should have been able to do easily since you have been in this business for a while.
You set some expectations and those then changed quite a bit. Not just a little but alot. A 180CS went from $349 to $499. That's a big jump. It's not unreasonable for us to now want an explanation as to why that went up so much. Who is the beneficiary of that big price jump? Goes back to my original question. Did BM raise the wholesale price dramatically? Did they raise it at all? Or are you benefitting from the big price jump?
