    Yeah we’re reaching the point where it becomes clear that the market can’t bear everyone charging the most the market can bear.

    People will pay extra for a luxury. People won’t pay the most they’re willing to pay on a luxury on every luxury they’ve gotten accustomed to at a reasonable price.
