I fucking love it! once I found out MSRP meaning means the top dollar the douchiest vendor will charge, It made my day. I like going to mfg to get specs, and when they show what they expect the max retail price to be, it shows me two things, how much they value their product and how to identify the asshat vendors.

As long as you mark it as MSRP, most people will understand that price is generally higher than what they will pay a vendor.

MSRP are inflated a bit, do they scare people away. Would it be better without any prices? I know I often skip places without any prices but I also know that I am pretty bad at extrapolating my experiences into what the "average" customer would do. -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team.
