My old adage (that I stole from somewhere) when talking about price was...

OK Mr. Customer, you can only ever, in life, get 2 out of 3 of these, so pick 2..

Service, Price, Quality

And to the sales folks on the board, think about that a few minutes and it's usually true.



And back to Mike Denero for a minute. I think his prices are only a bit high and I also think he has a very good eye for nice cards. Most of his cards are nice for the grade. He used to be on the board and was a very friendly guy,.

You're absolutely right. Having just finished a customer service and sales class last semester this mantra was taught to us in both. Hardly anyone can provide a customer with everything they would like. Set up your business in a way where customers leave happy and they will look over your weaknesses and focus on your strengths.
