Yeah but the point is just because you can scr%w your customers, doesn't mean you should. My mom owned a dog boutique for many years and I am well aware of the typical mark up and have no problem with it. But if I bought a carrier for $60 and later saw it at PetSmart for $18, I would feel taken advantage of and would never give my business to that person again. There are many awesome sellers who make an honest profit and inspire customer loyalty. Anyone who thinks it is okay to sell a Walmart or Dollar Store dress at boutique prices would never get my business.
