Well...................I agree with everybody.  With SlopNBC, we know the prices are going down.............if the item remains in stock.

Here is my problem with SlopNBC that other legitimate dealers (such as the Best Buy you mentioned) DO NOT DO...SlopNBC and their hosts knowingly lie about the status of their inventory....Buy it right now ......it's selling out fast...........only 20 remaining.......and all the time (in most cases), knowing that they have more inventory than they can get rid off.

Unfortunately, every once in awhile when the make the above statements, they are actually telling the truth (which I am sure thaey are ashamed of - nevertheless, it does happen) and something really does sell out.............consequently, if we steadfastly adhere to the "price will always go down" theory, we sometimes miss out on something we wanted.

It is not the lowering of the price after intro that really bothers us...it is the constant ethical challenge!

I am in a business that a lot happens that upset us dealers we buy a pipe brand say 3 months befor Xmas and then the damn  dist cuts the price in Dec to buy 1 get one free to dealers so now do I buy MORE of course so I can cut my prices and average out my over all cost so I can compete its not personal JUST BUSINESS ..

Happens all the time in almost every business ! IMHO its part of doing business ..I see nuthing wrong with it BUT I have been in one kind a business or another most a my life and fully understand all ends of it >>> in the long run imho price cuts help consumers   ! but it do hurt if you bought in at a hi price then see it cheaper a few weeks or even a yr later .... But dist dealers or no one can control the market completely ever with any product ..BUT if you LIKE what you bought and enjoy it it should not hurt as much ....this is just imho and iam not trying to defend slop nbc at all !!! I just think its Business..Pure and simple...

So yes he will have a lot to say in there business I can have a say in a few of my dist and get what I want from the ones I move a lot a product for // so ya were in business together.. its business were in it to make money ....I see nuthing wrong with JL and Lior being in a close business relationship.. its smart if ya ask me ...WE as buyers or as consumers have to be smarter in when and HOW we buy it will if enough do it dictate what they do ... all this is IMHO not to ruffle feathers :)

ONE MORE TIME....it is not the ordinary course of business that this thread is addressing.. ...........It is not the lowering of the price after intro that really bothers us.............it is the constant lying about the value and urgency to buy.

It is the constant ethical challenge!

I completely agree that is a  very unethical way of doing business and bothers ME and I see all of US a lot ....and slop seems to be getting worse not better .. and that is NO way to run a business ,,,I know if I  Ran mine that way we would be outa business in short order .. I think it will catch up to them sooner or later and most likely sooner .. companys that do business like that do not last ... that is a fact a life ... this will come back and bitem in the #$%^&*( IMHO
