What 50% off Toppers? Where?
More or less new Laser for 4 grand? Deal? Sounds like something from the sales prevention team. 50% Off, pay next year, interest free.. That's a deal, in case you were wondering. And no there are no black friday deals on Core kites, sorry. |

Probably because the people who build them need to earn a living.

Given quite a few singlehanders are now north of 10k, me thinks the industry is pricing out the JAMs- if not from the sport as a whole, then certainly from the aspiration of new boat ownership.

i'd venture to suggest that a mass produced board:
Sells far more units than a racing dinghy Takes far less time to build Uses far less materials Is made of much cheaper materials Has had far less R&D on a specific model Has far lower tooling costs Are manufactured abroad at far lower unit cost for most of the above reasons And therefore that they can, maybe, afford to give a few thousand away. And might still earn a profit even at that price. Edited by Paramedic - 23 Nov 16 at 8:06pm |
