[QUOTE="Flipx99, post: 3628939, member: 562352"] I am aware of thus. Usually there is also a distributor between the shop and the company. Maybe even another middle man. There is not that much information available about it publically. (In Finance journals, economic journals, and besides that 1 issue of Forbes with Tommy McKinnie, businessweek, etc) If the latest CA&E issue says the car audio market is a $7B per year industry. That is about the equivalent of 1 division ( aprox 400 stores) of Lowe's. [URL="http://finance.google.com/finance?client=ob&q=KR"]http://finance.google.com/finance?client=ob&q=KR[/URL] [URL="http://finance.google.com/finance?q=NYSE:SWY"]http://finance.google.com/finance?q=NYSE:SWY[/URL] [URL="http://finance.google.com/finance?q=NASDAQ:WINN"]http://finance.google.com/finance?q=NASDAQ:WINN[/URL] I can go on and on about profit margin. You may not be able to manage your way out of a paper sack, but don't ever in your life try to call me out on financial ratios. See above. You are a stupid fvck. Like your store is the only store....[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif[/IMG]:rolleyes: I do. But on an aggregate level.

I spefically mentioned the profit margin of major grocery stores. Sudy fragmented markets much? This isn't the first time it will happen, isn't the last. Just maybe you know a bit more about car audio and care more about it, but from an economical and financial point of view, it is nothing new. Here's a couple possible scenarios 1.
