But regardless of all conditions we want to dispose of our stocks and we have cut prices to the bone, in many instances less than wholesale, in others a few dollars above cost, no matter what price has been made, the profit is null but what matters profits, what matters costs when we know you, the public, will buy if the price is right and you can be assured at this sale the price is iwht.
