This is an interesting example. As an investor, if I bought stock for $80
and the next day it dropped to $40, I would sell it to cut my losses and not
buy anymore stock from that company. Not sure what this has to do with the
issue of cutting the price of a product two weeks after release though. This
move by Rebel only hurts the loyal customers who bought early or pre-ordered.
It's not the money at issue here either, it's the principle of the matter that
most people have issue with.
