However in that situation the costs are purely money. If a person is overcharging other teams (not that I am saying this is the case) Then that team will either see a loss immediately in the form of low ball sales, or long term when they become removed form the community (again not saying it is the situation here, in fact it is not) If you get deep enough into Economics, then you find there is no right or wrong, there is only fact. So just as anyone can set their price for the balls, anyone can say that price is unfair and both of them are factual, neither right nor wrong.

Anyone can watch Westcoast Choppers and see adults build things, but FIRST is great because it encourages kids to do the building and adults to do the watching.

GO DANVILLANS!!
