C64 custom cases

[bbond007]

I have #162 which is tan and #986 which is transparent.

Anyway, the tan one snaps together perfectly and seems a little better. The transparent seems to be not as precise fit. I'm very happy with the quality of both for the price. On eBay, the transparent one was $10 more  than the tan.

You can actually see the imperfections on their site -> https://shop.pixelwizard.eu/en

It looks like the Beige case might be the best at hiding the problems.

Can you be more specific?

Even the A1200 cases from the Kickstarter (which were produced using brand new molds) aren't perfect, they have this strange discolored patch at the top.

Shoot.  My problem with the A1200 case is I still haven't figured out how to do the cut-outs for the USB ports.

LOL, I guarantee any lost sales because of lack of scarcity would be more than made up by increased sales due to better affordability.

The video game console market is an example of scarcity increasing sales.  When a new console is released if it is in short supply it may increase demand somewhat because of the psychological aspect.  Nintendo does this often.  However, if Nintendo's console was twice the price of the Xbox/PS then scarcity would not make up for lost sales that the increased price would bring.

Diesel car sales have slumped because some manufacturers cheated on a test, (which most people knew they were doing to some degree anyway). How do you think people would react to:

The fuel consumption, losing your drivers license in about a week due to speeding tickets, not being able to park your car anywhere, your car being keyed because your neighbours were sick of the noise.

There are two reasons for wanting a Lamborghini

If you could buy one for 20k then my desire to own one would instantly evaporate.

"For example, in the 1990s when "fashion" jeans became popular, one retailer found that he could sell more when he raised the price."

"A corollary of the Veblen effect (where goods are desired for being over-priced) is that a decrease of their price decreases their demand."

That's a cool story, but I guarantee you if a Lamborghini sold for $20K they would have sold a hell of a lot more than 1095 in 2017.
