Continuation Of Genuine Product Pricing.... One might call it Genuine Product Pricing or GPP. Instead of say asking, for an example, $599.99  you consider getting real and put down the genuine price as $600.00. You might ask if customers wouldn't be  perturbed for not allowing them to experience the one cent saving on a purchase of something that costs hundreds of dollars but I'd suspect they'd get over it don't you think?  They might even stop to consider that you're a business which tells things like they are and feel good about giving you that extra penny when they see your price as say, $800.00 instead of $799.99.  I'd like us all to imagine a world where you walk in a store and see ads and see stickers on tags as, "We're firmly and absolutely are committed to GPP as apart of our friendly good service" Would it mean that one could never price something in the 90 range?
