Hah-hah...you really don't know about cascading price points do you? I'm not smart enough to figure out how to do it. But I've been in a room at one of those "useless" conventions, late at night around 2 a.m. with a handful of guys who have more money than God. And the conversation is always business...drunk, but business. And those guys have techs and programmers who are so fucking smart it's sick. And they can hit your card for $30 and if it says "No" they hit it for $25 and they will work all the way down until they find a number your card will take.

And it doesn't really matter what that number is. Because even if it's a dollar...they just made money. But if you get declined...guess what? It costs a site owner a decline fee.

There's a whole other level of thinking that most of the guys on GFY don't even see or seem to be aware of. It's about making money. And NEVER losing money.
