I think Dave and Troy should buy the new $600,000 system they heard at Axpona, then sell it used and report back to us what proceeds were left. That would be very telling about margins of many high end manufacturers and dealers alike. Because, after less than a year, the pricing typically depreciates by about 50% of the original MSRP. regresses to the mean and is sold for 1/2 (or less) than the original MSRP.
