I notice your CGW is $497 or $597 and Erin's readings have 7's in them as well. Even 97's in everything. Is there a particular reason for that? Is it good marketing? It does look better than $499 or $599. Is there a specific reason why all the prices you set and Erin sets ends with a 97? Or is it simply a preference?

FWIW in my experience $X7 sells better than $X9. I think it's because people have become desensitized to $X9 prices.

Yup, 7 sells better than stuff with a price ending with a 9. Basic marketing knowledge these days.

Okay, that's what I figured. It does look nicer and would entice me more if I was buying something. I guess they skipped over 8, but 7 is a lucky number. ;0

It's biblical subliminal propaganda.
