    Smart - Lower prices is probably what’s been keeping sales so low…

    They should give the CEO a big compensation bump…

      In reality, there are actually situations where pricing something too low can actually reduce sales, which sounds counterintuitive but makes a lot of sense when you consider how we evaluate price versus perceived value and quality.

      This is most definitely not one of them.

        I remember someone talking about a drink company that was on the edge of failure because they couldn’t sell their product when priced at $1. They rebranded and charged like 3x more and ended up blowing up. I wanna say it was Celsius?

    The Cyberbeast variant, which now costs $114,990

    But the article completely omits that the price includes 3 free big Swastika stickers to put on your car. Totally worth it!
    🤣🤣🤣

      I think that is right. It’s probably $15k worth of telemetry for the “Air Force target practice” use case.
