My Two pence worth....
Well what happens in the states does not necessarily mean it's good for the rest of us!!! As we now know to our cost... no mortgages, unemployment etc?? sound familiar
I fancy what's happened here is a BIT of a 'Cock up' (understatement!)....
I shall explain...
I am in the market for a 100/150mw blue....I can now buy this at cut down VERY VERY low price...GREAT me thinks...so I can buy off what appears to be 'one' agent, recently back selling laser wave products ...excellent for me...CRAP for the other agents who were not 'IN' on the low price offer.
BUT I'm alright coz I got my cheap laser!!!! Aren't I ??
Well following on from above....'never to be seen again ' price may be right ...the other agents GO BROKE coz they cant compete... so where is my support coming from if the laser goes pop???
Maybe the supplier goes BROKE for selling gear tooo cheap and lets face it nobody will want to pay full price for Lasers again!
So it's seems to me ....going for £1's worth now...
1. Striking up a deal to a new / ex supplier is a SNUB in the face to the existing agents, as THEY should have been cut the same deal????shouldn't they????? Dont the new supplier also sell CNI's gear also??? DOUBLE SNUB
2. For fairness and equity ALL the agents should then have the opportunity to agree a 'cut price ' weeekend if that what was wanted/needed....instead ....we got a mess
3. For one agent to then go selling 'global' especially on PL undermines your co-agents....THIS says a lot to me.....
SO i wont be taking you up on your VERY generous offer... WE all want sumthin for nothin and we ALSO want high pay / wages...well it cant happen...we go BROKE...mmmm world recession I think it's called.
Foolish as they may seem....I cannot bring myself to BUY a laser from an Agent who will deliberatley undercut undermine and show total DIS respect for others so some might say ...well thats business...
....I say BULL***T...
.... Id rather buy my laser from an agent I can Trust and hope they will still be around to SUPPORT me WHEN I need them.
Rant over
