when did TLC extend its rebate mail in time to 30 days from the one week ? it raises these questions: why,( who complained the customers, retailers or mail in jobber? or did the failing pcdata numbers force them?), what's the expected mailin coupon rate now, are effective ave selling prices now $9.99 ? are margins crushed? what will the return allowances now be? (expect an exploded number on the Q3 report!) or are customers expecting just lower prices, if pc's are so cheap? has the wealth effect slowed retail spending? naturally, all the analysts forecasted all this, and its already factored in to the forecasts... (I'm killing myself laughing....)
