That was exactly my point though.  The company could make MORE profit on • bulk
by reduceing the per unit cost but greatly increasing the volume produced.

But you are making an assumption that you can see how many would sell at a
particular price/quantity.  That kind of assumption is precisely the hard
one that drives all pricing and packaging.  From the evidence, I would say
they don't agree with your assumption.

And I would much rather see more coverage than 10,000 cheap 2x4's.

This is the second person that did not read my post.  I said I wanted • 10,000
6x8 PLATES.  6x8 plates are a bit different than the 2x4 bricks two posts • now
have assumed I said.

Relax, there are a lot of postings.  I think someone did say 2x4's at some
point, and I wasn't directly addressing yours.  But I will now: "I would
rather see more coverage than 10,000 unit packs of 6x8 plates to make Mike
happy."  ;-)
