You sure that isn't a mortar hiding behind a camera?

We really are that rare. Sad but true.
40 years ago I discovered an obscure Bourbon brand called Marker's Mark and now it it an International hit with people who appreciate a good Bourbon whiskey.
28 years ago I discovered a first class, older camera maker named Pentax. They sold a somewhat secret brand when it came to consumers.
They are both first class but the Bourbon is sold at retail by the the retailer for whatever the market will pay. It costs a lot more some places than others. I suspect without proof that the distiller makes the same gross profit on each unit (with discounts for volume purchases).
There may or may not be a moral to this story, only you and Pentax corporate can make that call.
