because most shooters want a stable business - lots of ATK shooters did use brokers I think at one time, maybe they still do - shoot 10 sets for ATK and then a few extra and put them with a broker. ATK values loyalty and degrees of exclusivity - meaning when they make buying decisions they are going to favor those who shoot for less customers.

but i do somewhat agree with you - my guys could have made more money also licensing content - out of loyalty to ATK and other exclusive customers they decided not to sell licensed content.

that's how I met Brian Bradley aka Wanton - he was my favorite ATK shooter - liked the girls he was shooting and the quality - so I called him up and asked him how much to buy content from him - was going to buy a shitload from him - the intent was to license it. I thought he understood that - obviously he hadn't understood me because a few days later he contacted me and said 'You aren't reselling this are you?' and I said 'um ...... yeah!' and he said he couldn't do that - for the reasons given above .... so we came to another agreement.
