I, too, wanted to thank you for your previous post concerning how you arrived at the given price point. Price points are always fascinating for me, as they are a balancing act between what a producer would like to charge (lots) vs. what a consumer is willing to pay (anywhere from a lot to very, very little). And how consumers and suppliers are able to reach that middle ground is a study in and of itself. :) > If you buy parts for 10,000 boards, the cost would go way > down, but where are you going to find 2,500 folks who want sets of > IIfx SIMMs? Is there some way of gauging demand, perhaps? Such things are always hit-and-miss, (i.e. there's often a large gap between those who *say* they want something, vs. those actually willing to pay for it) but perhaps you could arrange for some sort of sign-up sheet on your site to get at least a vague idea?
