[rodgersorganusers] Re: Price listings

William,
You make a good point as well.  But as a home organ user (with no external 
speakers, etc.) I would like to be able to know a base price even in a range.  
I 
don't like the car buying process but I do it -- with a little web research 
first -- not to screw the dealer -- but to give me some sort of feel for 
whether I can trust him. If he tells me he pay X from the factory and I know he 
pays 
Y, I know he's lying (assuming Y is less than X).  I know I will not pay Y, 
but I like to know what Y is.  Could Rodgers give a price for the organ along 
with a statement that says something like "installation costs will vary from 
church to church due to additional labor costs and possible additional 
equipment 
needed for each individual installation"?  
Also, I want us to remember that this thread is (was) talking about an 
MX-200.  How much markup can be needed to cover installation? (and someone 
mentioned 
service calls which I think is fair to be included in the markup).  I don't 
think anybody is asking for Rodgers to list wholesale costs, but for equipment 
like the MX-200 or the PR-300, couldn't they list wholesale + 20% or whatever 
they agree with thier dealers is a fair markup?
