Re: Local tackle shops episode
Probably fishing reels and rods are the last products being sold at Manufacturers Suggested Retail Prices. This invites on line or out of state shopping to not pay MSR Prices. If the manufacturers stopped cutting off supplies to small retailers who discount from their suggested prices their businesses would surely gain.
I find it amazing that we can bargain for discounted prices on automobiles with sticker prices over 100K but there is a 'set price' on a $300 fishing reel!
