From what I’ve seen, I think all the vendors of
endurance tack are competitive in their pricing **based on the pricing we get
from our distributors and manufacturers** There are some manufacturers that will
set a suggested retail price and then they will sell below that price to the
public (basically putting themselves in direct competition with their vendors).
When I set my pricing, I’m certainly not trying to be competitive with
those “over the pond.”
I truly believe that the vendors I’ve talked with and
worked next to at rides and expos try to find the balance between setting a
competitive price and making a living for themselves.
> Here in the US i can not
find them [Just Chaps] under $85 and thats without shipping …
BTW, we carry the Just Chaps
products and our highest price is $82.95 (for the chaps with fringe or
fluorescent chevrons). We’re also offering free shipping this month on
any Just Chaps order. PLUS we’re shipping from Montana so there’s no sales tax
involved.
I’m not sure what prices Diana is seeing for Zilco,
but I’m sure my prices are competitive (I stock Zilco at rides, but have
not yet added it to my Web site – sometimes there are just not enough
hours in the day).
