a 10k markup on a 5k watch doesn’t sound particularly bad, when you figure in rent and im sure high insurance, employees, and the relatively large amount of money you have tied up in inventory. Also, the jewelery tore doesn’t threaten to bring down the economy if one of the watches stops working or require us all to bail them out. s yeah, maybe banks ought to be regulated. also they’re a hell of a lot more profitable than a 200% markup on a hard-to-sell item.

September 20, 2010 at 8:09 AM #606718afx114Participant[quote=KSMountain] Does that mean Ben Bridge and Jessup’s should be forced to give some or all of us free watch cleaning and repair, because they “make enough”?
Should we reduce their profits? Should we be able to say what they can charge, or be able to limit their markup, so that the “most vulnerable among us” aren’t victimized? [BTW, I’m one of them].[/quote]
That depends. Did the jewelry store get a 0% loan from the taxpayers to purchase their inventory and pay their payroll, lease, and insurance?
