Its kinda like this. If you import a sav for $5 and sell it for $8, then if you have to feed it, you will not make any money what so ever. So they normally don't, then the shop that gets it, paid $8 and sell them for $40, but because they sell it for so much more, they have to hold it for longer periods. So they have to feed it. Every time you fed it, you lose money. So you feed it the cheapest possible thing. Its really not that hard to understand.
What you and others fail to understand is, you look at that and think they are making a good profit. But that is not the case. They also have to pay wages, electric, fuel costs, etc. So they are hoping to make a profit, but its not common to make a huge profit. Who makes the most is the first guy, because he usually resells the monitors as soon as they are unpacked.
Years ago, I bought some indo monitors from importers. They would tell me that when the monitors crap its going to really stink. But not to worry, its only the dogfood they feed them. hahahahahahaha absolutely true story. Cheers
