Hi Zerotown, crossing my fingers you're right. It is true in a previous e-mail, Mr. Bart Sikkens, Paccus CEO, pointed out in your very same direction, Zerotwn, when saying:
"muchos gracias Gonzalo,
we will keep it in mind. In the mean time we work on a first exclusive series.
kind regards
Bart".
FIRST EXCLUSIVE SERIES.
I am afraid - and I would be very glad aswell - that's the point for those outrageously high prices.
I emailed him a few hours ago, asking for a confirmation on the price news. I'll tell you back as soon as he answers.
I mean they naturally want their joystick in the market in huge ammounts, if possible. The investment in development and world wide patents has been enormous. They do not want to throw all that effort away.
So marketing wise, what's the point for such heart-attack prices. To draw our attention on the more expensive joysticks in history, while we push our noses on the shop window, drooling, unable to reach for them?.
Sincerely I hope you're right Zerotown. Thanks for taking my hopes back to life.
Engadin.
