I never said it didn't work.
But people who are familiar with scarcity marketing don't freak out when they see discounts & countdowns.
It's actually been around a long time.
Remember infomercials saying "Call within' the next 10 minutes and we'll double your order for free"?
Scarcity marketing 101
Ever bought a car?
They say if you walk away, you'll never get a better deal -- or even the same deal at any point in the future.
It's just marketing...

What are the odds that anyone buys GPS seeds at normal retail?

I occasionally paid retail. If I want it, I want it.

Right? Especially when retail price is arbitrary.

Timing is everything. If you want it NOW, there are usually few options.

Why did you pick COBs over quantum boards? Just curious.
I'm going to do an LED build this spring and have not decided which way to go.
Maybe a combo?

For the record, I agree with you both. I justlike the discounts. It's great marketing. Retail is set to align with the upper middle range of breeders. Not the most expensive but not cheap. Enough wiggle room to discount to wholesale.
Everyone's happy
I never need seeds. I have plenty. Every seed purchase I make is impulse. If there's a discount code I use it. If not nuggets. If no nuggets I'll pay retail.

Cause QBs are hard to find.there both as good as the other.the heatsinks for the boards are what's hard to find.i will probably get the boards next and run 1 room with cobs and 1 with qbs and see how it goes.i found a 2 board kit on a 4 foot slate 240 watts for 350 a piece.i would need 6 total for a 4x10.

For now, yes it is. He's gotten a lot of seeds out to far more people than he otherwise would have. If the weed turns out very good, then his rep is solid for all future endeavors including fewer sales and promotions.

this is just like kohls with 20% off and kohls cash. makes it fun to pay a normal price. creates impulse buys, and depends on the peron, but it makes it fun
JCPENNEY tried a new program of real low prices all the time, no more coupons and they lost hundreds of millions in revenue. people like the thrill of the hunt.
after all my discounts, nuggets etc, I got 6 packs of beans for $240ish including shipping and processing fees.
which is the exact right price someone should pay for direct from breeder. he is still doing better than selling wholesale to the other shops. consignment he has to wait to get paid, some banks never paying, and if paid up front, they get a discount for around 20-50 a pack anyways. trust me he does better having his website like this, he controls the ebb and flow of sales and he doesnt have to worry about another bank giving shitty customer service.

Still highly recommend that you try a cheap Quantum Board build since these new COBs are working so well for you. You could put together a 2x QB120 setup to easily take care of a 3x3 veg setup - 120-130 watts to take care of mother plants? All these QBs throw out 400-500 Umoles at very comfortable distances.
