Seeing all the supposed $5,000 LED TVs on Amazing selling for $1,200 is always a good laugh...
A tangent, but it was a fun conversation recently with the girlfriend in Hawaii staying at the St. Regis. (Hawaii has a hotel rate 'fairness' law) Inside the closet there's the legal statement: "Suite maximum daily rate $9,600". You're never going to see that rate unless either the Olympics come to town or it's New Year's Eve... "no, we did NOT pay $10k a night" ... "wow, but that's what this costs!? Wow!" ... "No... no... but how else would you comply with a maximum rate law?"
