The manufacturing bidding price might be cheaper, but it's the shipping that killing everything now. That's why I don't get all this \"China\" advantage, if all the costs are going for shipping, you may as well just build them here.\n        \n\n\nClick to expand...\n\n\n\n\nWe might be having bit of a disconnect.\n\n\n\nLooking at the FW retail prices at $800 to $900 is revealing.\n\n\n\nSomeone is making a VERY good margin or let's hope it is at least being realized by both the retail shops & the manufacturer/distributor.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMaybe with all the recent hikes on shipping & fees they may be seeing an increase landing closer to $180, but their volume is more likely to have them fall somewhere in between.  So maybe it is more like $165 then they split the margin with the shops.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThat would great if they did that, but I doubt they do.  It would help the shops to actually make some money from surfboards.  Some shops are able to do that. Mollusk has big markups on the boards they sell.  I know that because I sold to them for years. In quite a few cases, they made more than I did!"]], "columns": ["post_id", "thread_id", "thread_title", "post_number", "author_username", "post_date", "post_date_iso", "post_body"], "primary_keys": ["post_id"], "primary_key_values": ["223617"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.5552399998123292, "license": "Public Domain"}
