He has some really interesting stuff, and his decision that he would rather sell one thing at $100K rather than ten things at $10K seems to be pretty common these days. I'm interested in the Fleetwood DeVille's, but I have to admit that his decision to take the price from $9,600 to $12,600 almost immediately after getting CBS Sunday Morning to come out and do a story on him gave me pause. The product is about two or three years old and get's a 30% jump after some national publicity.
Queue some dope to come in and cite the cost of lumber. If you just look at his options and the price jumps (like $6K from the basic DeVille's to ones wrapped in less leather than would go on a very small ottoman) it's very clear that he's not interested in selling to audiophiles, but rather folks who want unique and will pay for it. Good for him if he can make it work.
