That's too expensive for bulk diskettes.  You can still find Imation branded in retail box for cheaper.

Or people could just go directly to Athana like you did.  Sure, the bulk pricing is needed, but there are other cheaper places with no quantity limits.  

Point is, your disks are overpriced, and not rare at all.

Just because it's common practice doesn't mean it's acceptable. :-(  I'm not upset, I just commented that his prices are too high (completely my opinion).

For example, 50 pack bulk 3.5" DS/DD $12.95

This is our first blank media offered. If the price is too high the market will react.


:sigh:  This is the market reacting.  Only the marketer isn't paying attention.

OK lets look at both angles the same place that is selling the 3.5" cheaper is charging 9.95 for 10 5 1/4 diskettes..


Yes, which is why I used the 3.5 as an example.  I can dig up a 5.25" price too from other vendors.  

Do you buy everything at one store?  Probably not.  I look at price as well as selection and make my purchase decission based on that.  The internet makes it very easy shop around.    

If you're willing to pay almost TWICE as much "knowing where the money is going" then you're just a sucker.

No where did I say you were price gouging.  I said you were overpriced.
