Quote from: fuckthesyst3m on July 11, 2012, 11:47 pmMy price seems to be in steep with the market!I have looked carefully at other sellers offerings and I would say my product is as good or better (from what I can see) for a good price. I don't want to undercut the market and disrespect the veterans on SR!I work hard to produce my product so I think I should get payed properly for my efforts;) ~FukHi fuckthesyst3m,I'm not in the U.S. so your listings don't apply to me, but I wanted to comment on your view regarding prices.This is an agorism oriented community and marketplace where the ideals of the Free Market reign. What that means is that there is no issue of 'disrespect to SR veterans.' Rather, more competition is beneficial to all.If you can undercut a competitor's prices and still turn enough of a profit to justify your work here and make the money you want to make then of course you should feel free to do so. If other vendors feel threatened by your efforts, they'll reduce their prices in turn and possibly cover their shortfall with an increased volume of sales.Silk Road needs competition in order to drive price changes in line with Free Market theory, where the prices are dictated by the markets, not by a cartel or tight-knit group of people (the latter term which would apply here re: vendors in the sense that prices will stagnate due to a reluctance to step on established vendor's toes. Essentially that is a form of price-fixing.) Why would it matter if another vendor was upset about your prices? It's a free market, after all!Other vendors will agree, I'm sure, that more vendors offering their products here is a good thing. A wider selection results in an increase of potential customers who will usually sample a number of different items from various vendors during their time here, which is good for everyone.Don't be afraid to 'step on some toes'; your customers will thank you for your lower prices, the lower prices will attract new customers, and other vendors and SR itself will benefit by proxy. :)Best of luck here on the Road in any event!- grahamgreene
