I'm still not sure how I feel about price fixing... I understand why they do it, to hold up the reputation of their products. To help the smaller guy compete with the larger stores that can buy in larger quanities and afford a smaller markup. But I also like saving money
Maybe they should go the way of some other industry's out their, where you have one model that is sold on-line, mail order etc.. and another model that is sold only through local stores. That way you don't have to worry about price fixing.
