Whatever the market will bear. We only had to get a
handlful for the convention. If we want to cover a boatload
a ctaegories here, then I'd bet that we'll need lower
prices.
I'd even be willing to ask one or two sponsors what they'll
pay, then use that to set the price for the rest. And hope
to fill the dancing card before the last waltz.
Otoh, we know what too much rocket science does to
operations, so let's call it a quorum and and unleash the
sales rep on them.
Call Kent and Milwaukhee last and tell them we have one
opening left and expect SeaChem (or American Marine) will
want it ;-)
Just kidding. Probably not much point in calling them.
