Hello Abe,I understand your thinking here though one must not forget the traditional markups used in the retail chain. For the most part you can expect to multiply the parts and labor costs by a factor of 5 to get your retail end user shelf price. Thus it is quite feasible the Bel Canto may consists of 500-600 in parts and labor!!

Cost of tweaking is more than cost of the original equipment? Not that uncommon - porky_pig_jr 17:16:50 06/4/04 ( 0)
