Those are the prices you're competing against. Mind you people could buy, sand, and varnish or paint them whatever color they want. Quality of wood, does not improve the sound of the machine. You have to research your competition and price accordingly considering no one knows anything about the quality of your products.

I, ve already done my research and The only one i am competing against is the japanese side panels and those cost 550sud.

Mpcstuff makes cheap stuff for cheap dudes.

IF you are making a Linving on music then 250eu is cheap for custom panels.

You say that is easy, then you are welcome to make your own custom panels, Cut them, center the holes, make them fit varnich and lacquer them . :-D :-D :-D :-D

Asking price and if they even sell are entirely different things.

Sure, you can be of the opinion that the mpc-stuff one is ugly all you want but they're offering a fully flush kit for 1/3rd of your asking price (and we still need to take into account the shipping and customs that one would be hit with if they were to purchase from you).

If you're offering a product that is so much better, then why present something that appears to be inferior? Or do I need to go to school for dendrology in order to determine that the genetic strain of Swedish wood is some how superior to American walnut?

Well i guess you could call me cheap because i like their design better. I think it’s cool that you’re making wood panels though. Take the feedback you’re getting from this thread and make the changes that the customer would like. I owned a mpc2500 for 13 years and i would never consider going with your design.

I apreciaTe, feedback but i choose what i am doing because that is what custommers like.

IF they want other modell to choose they can buy the mpcstuff one, simple as that.

If you has too choose an Android would you choose the iPhone or would you try to get something unique? :-D

So everyone in the topic is saying they don't like it, but you say customers do like it :) Interesting.

To me it looks like a sloppy school project made by a juvenile in manual labor. No offence meant, just the truth. I guess i won't be a customer.

Well i don't see custommers Here.
I am offering something to catch intresst from other side of the world.


Custommers are those who have the orders pendling and who are asking just for this type of panel.

IF you dont like you dont buy, you are puttning it like you have no choice.

Yet you can choose from mpcstuff or make your own nobody is puttning. Knife to your troath :WTF: .

I can't imagine anyone asking for this type of panel. But you know, there are also people still wearing uggs.

It's true that I have no choice.. because ... i don't have an mpc2500 :lol:
