Kitchen Remodel

[username]

I once sold a guy the same exact thing for 2x list just because I knew he thought the higher priced item was better. It was even manufactured in the same plant, It just had another distributers logo on it. Of coarse it was veered off the line for a new skin. But it was still the same. It was 280% mark-up.

There.............I've said it.

Sometimes as a distributer they even give you a cool looking logo to replace the old one I've changed furnace logo's from RUDD to RHEEM. Then back again just so I could sell them to the proper contractors. Its all legal ya know. They tell you its OK. They own the plant.

Home depot does it all day.

It appears that very few things you buy as far as kitchen appliances are made by the company who's plate appears on the damn thing. I went to Sears to look at Bosch appliances (they had none on the floor) but ended up going through their "elite" series (which is actually what I meant when I said I looked at Kitchen Aid up thread). Despite being "Kenmore", the refrigerator was made by LG, the double oven was made by Electrolux, the dishwasher was made by Whirlpool.

Anyway, unless I find out something to convince me otherwise, I've picked out 3 of 4 appliances. This pleases me.
