compete against that. We're barely breaking even with the present prices.
2-- These price wars are disastrous for our bottom line. If they're charging 10% less than we are, we've got to find a way to lower our
price while keeping our profit.
1-- Profits are alomst nonexistent now, we can't beat their price. How do they keep their price so low?
2-- We can try to lower our cost of production then. We need a price that we can compete with, something comparable with the competition.
1-- You really think we can make it? I don't have much faith in our ability to lower the price again. We're no match for them, the competition will beat
us hands down.
