<VV> "Savvy Marketing" / Disdain for.....

[henry kaczmarek]

This is no different from the person who sells Corvair telescopic steering 
columns to Corvette guys who are willing to pay a LOT more money for one 
than a Corvair guy will/can.

Then there's the CORSA member at a CORSA swapmeet who spent most of an 
entire day bothering a neaby seller for an AM/FM Multiplex radio.  Seller 
had it listed for 285---finally to shut the guy up, the seller gives it up 
for 200.  10 minutes later, it's on the buyer's table for 350.00.

Your mileage may vary
