RE: Cheapest Cats on the Web Market!
To be completely honest, this kind of thing will not throw the market out of balance in the least. It won't keep breeders from pricing lower, or others from pricing higher for the same kinds of cats. Nor does it force anyone to price things, much less pricing them in a way they are not comfortable doing. What it will do is allow for the market to balance itself according to supply and demand while allowing all different kinds of markets and breeders to coexist, as a free market should do. It will also provide a potential source of learning for those newer to selling cats in that they can see what the average fair market price is for a cat with similar traits to their own.
You are free to set your price and I am free to set my price, You are free to buy low and sell high and I am free to pay what I feel is fair for a cat I like, in this regard nothing changes. And as far as customer service goes, KittyCatS! is THE source for customer service with any cat issues. Any other services or products not offered by KittyCatS! are supported by the people offering those services or products. This too has not changed just by the introduction of this feature.
This is not going to hurt any relationships we have or anyone else has with breeders they know and trust, but it will allow consumers to obtain cats with similar (or even identical) traits at a price that they may consider a good deal, even if they wish to pay a higher price than what is lowest to support the breeders they like, they are free to do that after all.
Getting upset by having the ability to sort cats by price is no different really than sorting by trait count, location, or any other criteria. This just allows customers an added convenience while allowing the rest of us a new learning opportunity. Nobody has been undermined, or lost freedoms to conduct business as they see fit, or been damaged by this change to an optional third-party product.
TL;DR - It will be business as usual in the KittyCatS! Secondary Market.
