should I  sell engines for the price of the parts without markup? what about
my labor  and associated time and costs. It takes hours to run a store and
costs that  are not apparent like phones and insurance. How many hours a day
do you  think Kens spends chasing parts on the phone chatting with customers
and  returning Emails, and helping customers That's why he is entitled to  a
markup he needs to make a living none of us works for free
except Ron  a the depot
just kidding

the paycheck mentality is apparently at  work here

I thought we were all doing this for the LOVE  of it !  Peace & Love remember
that ?
