David,
You're saying that on the 99% actual prices are less bc people use the SMR and always want to pay less than the guide. I'm saying that the same prices are lower most likey bc not many people even use SMR bc it's really not taken seriously by very many people. The fact that the SMR prices are higher is just reflective of how out of touch it might if it were in fact used and for the very reasons Barry mentions above IMO. We are in agreement that it is not a legitimate pricing tool. It's an advertising slick masquerading as a price guide.
