[...buyer rants...]How is this not obviously STUPID BUSINESS PRACTICE?  
Seriously, is this how big business operates?  NO?  Why?  BECAUSE THEY UNDERSTAND THE COST OF LOSING CUSTOMERS OVER STUPID POLICY DECISIONS can be calculated in REAL DOLLARS.  At this point any reasonable person will conclude that ASICMINERS GREEED is larger than ASICMINER and the STUPID PRICING policy is driving customers away.  Count all the lost sales and goodwill destroyed by ASICMININERS desire to eek out a few extra coins today.  Instead they COULD HAVE eeked out our coins for years and years and years if they had treated the community with a modicum of respect.

Buyer, if you're talking stupid business practice, then ASICMINER will lose money -- they should be pitied, not scolded.  There can not be any talk of intentional fuckery.
If, OTOH, they stand to make more money by dropping the price, it is sound business & should be applauded by the this community as such.  Just ask Viceroy. Cheesy
