Here's the thing. Yes, vendors look for customer's dollars. However, you simply don't treat your vendors as an afterthought and think they'll just fall in line for a figure. There's lots of figures to support in the market and if you don't treat them right, they'll just pick another, especially when those others have proven to make them money. They have things they could be doing and bills to pay, and at the end of the day, customers look for them to make them items. So it's probably best not to create entitled threads thinking they will bend to your will over an unproven figure.

Just something to think about and It is what it is.
