> we won't do black friday sales because we don't care to subject our employees to that and we care more about our existing customers anyway (supernote)

:blobcatcool:

@icedquinn Sounds like their "existing" customers wont exist for much longer because they are about to buy all the junk they need for the next year at half price somewhere else :)

@freemo time will tell i suppose. i went with rM over Kindle, but i probably would have gone with supernote over rM but i didn't know they existed until too late.

factorio and rimworld in the software world have shown its probably better to support a product and never go on sale, and they certainly aimed for that with their build choices (self healing screen guards pre-installed, durable nibs instead of designed to fail to put you on a vig of buying replacements)
@freemo i guess more specifically you can either have sales or you can have high end support. you can't really do both. the sales amputate your long tail that you need to survive the lack of constant replacement revenues

@icedquinn You can have both... its just, you often dont.

Personally i dont know why anyone buys shit in person anymore anyway. Just do the sales and doit online.
