Or put another way: it's easier to sell the public (or their agents) over-priced garbage. PE guys a bit more discerning.
Not at all what I said. And I also disagree.

I'd rather not get into this discussion too deep but your comments are essentially wrong. PE shops achieve higher returns in many ways (leverage, operational improvements, etc...), not by paying less than public investors - if that was the case, then there wouldn't be any take-private LBOs at premium to trading price, right? Like the J Crew one discussed here...?
