Then you haven't sold cars or mass-market electronics or groceries, or
many other things that have low-to-moderate markup. I doubt that even
iPods are marked up as high as many non-online glasses. Few things are
marked up as high as glasses, though there's quite a bit of variation,
from $500 prestige frames down to the "2 for $69" deals.

If all our goods were marked up as high as glasses, few of us would be
able to afford much beyond a small amount of clothing, beans, rice,
water, a bicycle, and a shack.

As Woody Guthrie sang, "Some rob you with a 6-gun, and some with a
fountain pen."
