View Full Version : Declare war on overpriced white goods!


Shhhh! I'm Listening to Reason!

Good old insane Arns' jihad against upper-end audio has me thinking
that we need to carry forward GOIA's work into other market segments.
I think white goods is as good of a place to start as any. After all,
once we show them the error of their ways, I'd imagine that Best Buy
and Circuit City will just roll over on the audio stuff.

Best Buy sells turntables. Unbelievable!

So does Circuit City! Now I'm mad!

(Fortunately, I did not see one dildo offered on either website.)

But I am personally far more concerned with items like this:

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8381119&type=product&id=1179165374611

My god. A $7300 refrigerator. What next, a $7700 range?

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=6841778&type=product&id=1140393413952

Jesus. $15,000 and they don't even have a dishwasher or a microwave
yet.

Let's lead the charge against this chicanery and criminal marketing.
We need to spread the word, and quickly! Only god knows how many poor
sheep are considering buying this stuff!

So who's in? GOIA?

What about this one ?

It could work correctly if Bratzi supply machinists.

How can Bratzi do that when he's powering it?

Why spending time in discussion since Bratzi know who's the right guy at
the right place ?
