> The price increase has to do with the crazy state of the whole music electronics industry 
and not any personal or corporate greed.

I should clarify: Not MY greed. I am not a greedy person. You DO NOT make musical 
instruments if you are greedy. If you are greedy, you get in the oil business.

To illustrate: When I was still selling modules new for $479.00, two businesses spang up 
which would buy modules from me at the low price and immediately resell them for $750.00 
the day they were received.

It is basic business logic that if you can purchase something directly from the manufacturer 
or hand-crafter and immediately turn around and resell it for a $300 profit, then the item is 
under-priced to begin with.

So much for my well meaning but naive attempt to keep prices reasonable for the "real" 
musicians and enthusiasts.

It is other peoples greed that drove the prices up insanely fast, not mine.
