of old fashion people and plain stupid people

Hello,long time no see.
I found this article in the newspaper on Sunday that I thought was interesting enough to share if you didn't read on that day.Taken from The Star,22nd July,main section.
~~~~~~

in the sms section:

Harry Potter bk should nt be sold so cheap due 2 the best f every thing n definitely d story,most diehard fans should realize d value f the plot.Y people can spend rm110 for food,cloth or even a watch.

This is of course about the ongoing war between "Carrefour-and-Tesco" that are selling the HP7 book for RM40 less than regular bookstores ,and the "bookstores"(the publishers sold the books to them for a cheaper price than to regular bookstores), prompting some companies such as MPH to stop selling the book in protest.

But nevertheless this sms sounds pretty stupid.All I have to say is:"Shut up and read your book,person"

If people give you a better price for your goods just take it and keep quiet before they decide to raise the price again...

Also,do not forget that JK Rowling will in fact not starve to death because of the price reduction,her royalty fee will probably not even be effected in the first place anyway.The only difference is now we know how much the local bookstores have been fleecing us off our purchases, maybe up to 50% and we did not realise that until now.

I say,let the best person win.
Also,I say the HP7 book is still cheaper after the rage has gone down.

And I say,save your RM40 for you education fund.

the next sms below that one just now reads,in contrary:

"In business,competitive pricing is essential to attract customers.Sell cheaper ,n u get more customers.Thk u to Carrefour and Tesco for making d book affordable to poorer parents."

That,people,is what I'm talking about.Anyway,ask any arts person(visual/audio/performing/literature,etc) and they would say they'd gladly sell their products for a lower price but to more people ,than to sell it expensive and have less viewers in the end.
