what a sanctimonious load of bollocks - the competition has just eaten you for lunch and you still come with a superior attitude - perhaps someone should point out that if you cant compete on price then you should offer a better service or some other aspect to customers, but to suggest that Walmart need your approval or license, clearly you don't understand the term competition or you need someone else less sensitive and more pragmatic to word your press release

if it's a RRP R13 000 going for R4400, then they are leaving money on the table.

I don't think they would be that silly charitable

Goes to show that one could perhaps sell more of a given product at a lower margin. The demand is there, someone just have to take the plunge on higher volumes/lower margins over higher margins/lower volumes.
