SP prices

[Pmr Man]

Just intrigued as to how smart parts can raise the ion xe by 100 pounds (and other models raised aswell) when it couldn't beat the pmr 07 when it was around 150 pounds.
sorry if this is in the wrong section

global economics unforunately.
one of the contributing factors was the big decline in the $:£ exchange rate.

i doubt they'll be the last US based company to do something simialr in europe.

surely they would sell more at a lower price though?

but wouldnt make the profit they want!

but a lower exchange rate would lead to more profits? o well, SP's profits will be going down hill mostly in the uk. can't say that most people will miss them that much. at least untill things pick up

no, the delaers here wud have to buy em at the same value in dollars but instead of paying 50p to every dollar they are now paying 75p hence the prince increase.

a lower exchange rate helps uk exports not imports

well, basicly, origional ion is still a good price, £110, but SP have commited suicide with all there other markers, atleast in elgland anyway.
there is no way in hell any same person would by and XE for £240, £60 more and you have a PMR09...

but if your after one, there fairly cheap second hand, check the classifides
