Re: Gander Mountain SCREWED ME
I doubt it was Amerian Eagle, I have been assured by a couple of very smart guys on this very board, that only the retailers are making a windfall profit, the mfgs are only making extra profit due to volume. It sounds like someone thinks a MFG such as American Eagle is holding out for more money, ie cancel back orders, only ship under the new price point. This can not be true. If so, it would mean mfgs are making a windfall profit not due to volume and retail sales (most sell retail off their web page, very high price point but sell nonetheless), but off of new-very high pricing-because the free market is at work.
