And this would be, uhh, possibly Greek? Because it's Greek to me. Maybe you could put it in English so I could understand.
Oh, and I think Alan might like your last name before he posts that info. It's a two way street.
 
i think he meant to say that Aln cant remain unbias......which is pretty laughable since he is one of the most bias people on the BBS.....
 
Oh for crying out loud... I was referring to him not being able to talk as freely or able to remian as unbias as us because of the conflict of interest... period. lol Thank goodness it's Friday. :)
 
he's been talking pretty freely about prices.....

meanwhile you stay in your "about 2 dollars" Rain Man act.......
 
Yeah, but that didn't really answer Vikki question... but it did help narrow the cost down a bit. I'm also curious what the differences (if any) are dealing with a state own factory like 797 Audio as appose to a non state owned factory... and what is the difference between the factory cost of making something like the Behringer B5 vs the Studio Projects C4 and etc.

Anyway, with Marshall, Behringer, Studio Projects, Nady, and etc all fighting for the same market and so many factories in China competing I would think the cost needs to be kept pretty low.

Not only are you overpaid (and whatever it is you do, they're definitely paying you TOO much) but, you're also only semi-literate :eek:
 
i have no idea what he does for a living...he may very well be good at what he does and may even be underpaid.....i wont call him semi-literate for a typo......

but damn, hes irritating.......
 
Actually Alan most likely has no idea at all what it costs 797 to build a mic. He knows what 797 is willing to sell the mic to him for, but that says NOTHING about what it cost 797 to make. Also cost accounting is a very funny thing. You have the marginal cost, which is the cost to make one more at your current economies of scale, and then you have the fully burdened cost, which includes production ramp-up, facilities, overhead, regulatory costs and on and on. Nobody would sell for just their marginal cost of producing the unit.

It really is something of a moot point. What it all boils down to is whether the mic is a good value.

And as to the original question as to whether it was a good business to get into...do you think you can be a better value? How?
