Sidearm
« on: June 10, 2010, 09:33:04 AM »
Just saw this:

http://www.sidearm-cricket.com/

Looks like one of the things you use to throw tennis balls for dogs!

Looks interesting, be interested to see how much they charge, bound to be ridiculous!

You would like to think they'd be less, but you just never know! Some companies rate their products so highly, ala dragons den!

I'll go for £34.99 club and £49.99 pro. I think they mentioned a junior version maybe at £29.99.

I think it will be around £30-40.
People need to realise the costs that are involved with setting up a business to sell a product like the Sidearm. £30 quid for an innovative product isn't bad when you consider the time and money this guy will have put in to get it to market, alongside the likely sales numbers he will generate. All things considered, i bet there will be very little mark up.

Yeah but consider the cost of an almost identical product for dogs, maybe £10 at most? And it cant be that much different???
