Depends. Out of that 30% are you still buying supplies?  If not then 80% is 
fair. Think hard before you pull the 'its my spa card'. Is it worth it to risk 
losing an employee who has been with you for 'many years' over 10%?

Did she mention she was looking for one before she bought it?  Had she ever 
approached you about buying one yourself?  

There are lots of things to consider here, but for me the 10% wouldn't make 
that big a difference if it meant keeping a loyal valuable employee.

Subject: Re: NailTech:: Business question.. Owners help

This is your spa. The employee should have talked with you first before she
purchased the machine and brought it into your spa. This is only good
business practice. You have the right to tell her that she cannot use the
machine in your spa and charge your clients a price unless she pays you 70%.
You are the owner and you have the upper-hand. By the employee not telling
you first-hand about the machine, sounds like she found a way to use your
spa for personal gain. I would tell her to sleep on it and 70% is your final
offer.[?]
