But you know, Emmanuel is a big boy - I'm SURE he knows by now that he can
raise prices on some sets without problems, and make more money, but he
doesn't.  His reasons are his own, I will not question them.

Besides, who knows, maybe he's having convicts dig them out of the ground in

More likely he has found some of the larger warehouses that have misc stock
taking up space, and he gets them for pennies on the dollar.

In any case, I CAN'T afford to ask him to charge me more, if he doesn't want
to.  Maybe you can, *I* can't.

(...) What makes you so sure? Some of his prices are SO far below MV ($38 for a 4547??) that I wonder. You won't question them because you don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth.
