Pricing is always interesting.
My uncle used to sell a particular brand of rum for decades.
Never bought or drank anything else.
Once he stopped working for them he's never touched that brand again.

Companies call it "eating your own dog food"; if your products aren't good enough for you, why expect others to buy it?

And yes, pricing is interesting economics.
Barely understood in many businesses, totally misunderstood in publishing, with its special snowflake mentality.
Leads to some amusing conversations, though.
