I don't agree with your opinion.Yes ,the price list is made by the company but they make the price according to the cost and other
spending,not by the boss' mind.[A Professional Business Forum]%B'y/j;^&m6@
The thing you should do is to explain your products advantage to your client in order to get the order .
