We all know the duty cycles are bull. If one manufacture say they have a duty cycle is 100,000 on a 20 cpm machine, all the others have to follow suit. These numbers have been off since I been in this business. i.e. 28 years.

Until A4 starts to really take over in the U.S., my guess is that the manufacturers will produce higher CPP A4 devices so they do not negatively impact the number of more expensive A3 devices that are placed into higher volume environments. Once one manufacturer lowers the CPP for A4 devices, everyone else will follow suit.

Independent Dealers will never compete successfully with any Direct _BS branch on price. The _BS Branch has shown that they are willing to run their branches at a loss for years!

Re: RBS Continues to Dump Machines & Make Dealers Look Bad!

If you have a signed contract and RBS quotes a lower price, you have grounds for a law suit. It's considered unfair business practices and tortuos interference. Your dealerships laywer should send a letter to Ricoh's legal council seeking compensation. The last thing they want is a lawsuit.

This price increase for Ricoh does not discriminate as it is hitting all dealer's, VAR's and direct RBS Branch's. I'm guessing that Xerox, Canon, and KMBS will all follow suit.

It is the man (or woman) that "makes the suit." I know those custom fabrics and tailoring make the attention to detail and appearance seem professional, but the substance behind the outfit is even more critical when our customers rely on "trusted advisors."

I rarely ever even wear a tie anymore. Let the competition show up in a suit. Dress to suit the appointment. Perhaps it would be different in NYC but for up and down the street business a nice shirt and neatly pressed Khakies is all that's needed these days for 90% of your appointments.

Very true. As Fisher said, of course you will don the suit when the appointment warrants it, but It's silly to be sitting in a room with 10 people wearing business casual while you have on a suit and tie.

That's exactly what I was thinking. It's like they have a corporate script planned out. I also just heard from my Canon rep about 5 minutes ago that the other directs would probably follow suit and do the same thing. He told me Canon has had a digital marketing team (or something like that) for a while now for this but they were waiting to see who went first and then follow.
