<p>I'm gonna put another spin on this. From where I'm sitting a LARGE part of the problem ISN'T the LHS, but rather the "Wal-Mart mentality" of many of today's consumers, (ie, low price is everything while customer service and tech support is worth nothing).... I run a small internet business in another hobby sector, and I've heard time and again "x has this for $y, how come you are $5 more?" And this is often AFTER I've spent hours or sometimes even days explaining options to them and trying make sure that the item in question will fit their needs and abilities. From what I've been reading and seeing, perhaps I should be like many other places and just offer the lowest possible price, dump things on evilBay, only respond to SALES inquiries, and forget about everything else. More money and less headaches, yeah!!!!</p><p> Nah, not my style....so I guess I should go out of business and good riddance. </p>
