Additionally, we as Amuse's dealers have to pay for shipping from Japan, as well as customs duties, and we need to make some money off the kit as well.
The excuse people use of "not able to afford" something is relative; I know quite a few people that save up their money until they can "afford" to buy. In the end it's prioritizing whether one cares to support another's hard work or to support their own wallet.

Point noted.. BUT….. I can guarantee that most of Americans would not be in the "hey I want to pay more for something because of all the hard work they put into building this product".. That after school special had its door closed a long time ago. People tend to be smart with their money or at least try to be. If you want to blow you money on a kit that is not worth the $$ then so be it. Telling me about all the R&D stuff that went behind it is great, but in the end they did not build this kit for a Porsche, they built it for a 370z, so price it that way Again - if Amuse dropped their price there would not be an issues with rep. I put enough energy for the day on this topic – I’m sorry your business is being hurt by all the Reps being made.. Maybe you got into the wrong business? And I'm out... lol
