Default Goods at discount, slightly damaged...

Hi Mike,

I think The Robert Collier Letter Book talks a little bit about this (first published in 1931)!

He talks about selling slightly damaged goods for a discount... The products were still good, but slightly damaged, hence the discount...

The slight damage was the reason why for giving the discount...

And even with that reason why - they sold like crazy!

Best wishes,

Dien
