Anax...

How many times do you hear of Car Dealers selling at "wholesale" prices...there's what's called "wholesale" and "deadcost," which is the real cost after volume rebates, etc., etc.

Also the wholesale cost to one company can be much higher than one afforded one with higher volumes...obviously this kind of pricing is going to continue...anyone gone to CompUSA recently to buy a computer...doubt it. The wheel continues to turn/grind on the brick/mortar folk.
