Fun Manufacturer's Cost Questions...

209.240.200.15

Posted by truthseeker on March 22, 2000 at 10:11:03

OK, it would appear that most mainstream speaker dealers mark up their speaker cost by 100% for suggested price to consumers. Question: What percent of dealer cost would you guess the manufacturer cost is,on average? Do you think that the manufacturer does the same to the dealer? What about distributors?
NOW, if an independent manufacturer decides to sell direct over the web to the public, and eliminates dealers, distributors, and most advertising costs, what do ya think he should charge for his products? Should he give the entire benefit to the consumer? Or should he split the difference?
I believe these questions will be more important to both consumers AND manufacturers in the coming years. Thoughts?.....
