Here is another angle I missed: got to wonder what their margins
(markups) are?, or better yet, who the heck sold em the fish "wholesale"
originally? (I figure someone's either got a broken abacus or a "golden
mouth")....
Anyway, with my "drop-out" OSU education, I was able to perform some
"complex" math:

-Assuming either a hobbyist or wholesaler "got away" with selling GAR at
$10/pair @ "wholesale", ole "Fosters & Smith" marked up the retail price
of those GAR 296% (actually 300% is not "that far" out of line for
livestock markups believe it or not)
-However, justifying the markup on the GUE & RAC was beyond my
"graymatter", Gheez!!! (Those nothos must be on a diet of "Beluga,
cheese & truffles")

This whole thing begs the question(s) How many people are aware of the
AKA, the F&EL, Aquabid, or are in contact with ANY killie enthusiast?
Gotta wonder if some "promotion is in order..I can only imagine the rate
of "repeat business" w/regard to loosing a potential "killie nut" if
"Junior" kills those $50 RAC with his "Wardley flakes" & "Sponge Bob"
setup... Anyway, how would you like to be a "link" in that "supply
chain"? :-\
