I for one applaud the Kirkham's efforts and think they are adjusting to changing times. It is called good business. Of course it puts more pricing pressure on the SPF and ERA, high end glass kits and that is good as well if you are in the market.
I believe that most (not all), of us would prefer and alloy body over a glass body if the costs were close enough. The Kirkhams just seem smart enough to take advantage of the economiy of scale that comes with higher volumes. Good for them - good for us.
I love the way they are turning the market on its ear. Please keep up the good work!!!!
