Whack-a-mole
I don't give away designs and lots of tech information except maybe here. It's funny when you get a call from somebody that decided not to buy this stuff a few weeks later asking if I will install it.
When I give them the you screwed me price they seem to get upset how dare I
Scott,
If my boat was near you, you would have already been on it.
I am a do do it your selfer most of the time but, I do not mind paying for talent. Trust is a most important commodity. People who "steal" your knowledge and price info...that is the cost of doing business IMHO! We all have our problems. I just don't think your business plan is doomed to failure!
If I feel like I am getting screwed, you won't see me again and when asked my opinion, I will give it.

I've shipped to members all over and have done installs between Jacksonville and Miami.
I supply parts lists and accesories if needed along with drawings if necessary.
My point is if all the resellers played fair I'd not care. When members recommend the ones who don't play by the rules it's usually because they will undercut pricing for them and they either don't know or don't care as long asthey benefit in their mind.
