Posted: Sat Nov 19, 2011 3:58 pm.... interesting observation 
I think its a general correction/ catch up .... I think there was some dumping in the last year because of the economy and BearFoot opening fear ~~~ but thats subsided and the excess peds have found homes and now we are back to near equilibrium .....
And also the excess usually ends up in Asia - one thing that has astounded me since starting BearFoot is the number of Asian people Ive heard from that routinely have 20-30 BJFs , especially Japan and Thailand ... and I think Ive said a couple times that this site as you might guess gets the most hits from USA, but second is Japan and as many Japan hits as the rest of the non US world combined ..... but they are all readers but not posters .... and the pedals that go there do not come back ... I will also say that the Japanese BearFoot dealer takes more orders than all the others combined.
Good ole supply and demand.

Barring catastrophe, my pedals will go to my daughters on my demise. Still finding hidden sounds in all of them! Thanks Bjorn!!

Sounds like I will have to have kids of my own at some point to pass them along to.

Posted: Sun Nov 20, 2011 6:37 pmcould have something to do with the fact that a lot of folks don't have the comfort or coin to pay outlandish prices, that a majority expect for their pedals.
this isn't a poke at anyone,
just a thought.
I personally won't pay more than the builder got, that's my deal and what i've stuck to.
