Your "ethical lines of business practice" argument is comical.
Charging $15 for a bottle of water in a hurricane ravaged town is unethical.
Charging a relatively high labor rate and relatively high prices on goods is NOT unethical. Unreasonable? Perhaps. But enethical, not at all. And again, considering there are other lower-cost shops in the ATL area and Forged is STILL in business they obviously are doing something right. Their clients obviously find value in their services and are willing to pay a premium.
If what Forged is doing is unethical, then:
A car dealership asking MSRP for a vehicle is unethical.
A botique watch shop charging 35% more than an online shop is unethical.
A grocery store charging $6.99 for a 4-pack of Red Bull instead of $5.99 like the one down the street is unethical.
I could go on and on, but I'm sure everyone else gets the point.
