@Adroit
I agree on the measurements comment but not so much on competitive pricing. A lot of brands probably have MAP pricing (minimum advertised price), meaning that vendors can’t undercut other vendors selling the same product on the market. It also devalues a brand when everyone starts getting into a pricing war to appeal to frugal buyers. I’ll buy something from someone if I really want it and know the measurements. Price is usually secondary. I mainly buy stuff from Self Edge and Rivet and Hide. Both have the same pricing on product and carry similar brands. Of course, I won’t pass up a good deal on something but I’ll still buy new from either company.
