<p>[QUOTE=&quot;GDJMSP, post: 1280764, member: 112&quot;]They don&#039;t sell more because there are so few who collect those coins. And from among that small number of collectors there are even fewer who choose to use an album at all, and even fewer who choose to use a Dansco album.</p><p><br /></p><p>What I&#039;m trying to get across is that it&#039;s all a numbers game. Whatever type of album they make, whether it be for cents, half dollars, quarters - whatever - the overhead to produce those pages is pretty much the same. And if that page is one that they sell a lot of then that overhead is absorbed and their desired profit goal is met.</p><p><br /></p><p>But when it comes to a page they only sell a few of, then they come no where near meeting that profit goal. Thus they must reduce their production costs. And the only way they have of reducing they costs is to reduce the number of holes in a page. But even that does not achieve their profit goal. So then they increase the sales price for that page. </p><p><br /></p><p>These principles are the same principles that any business follows. You asked the question of why they do this. I have explained why. But what you really want to know is why they, the company don&#039;t absorb the costs and take a loss instead of passing those costs on to you in the form of higher prices. And the answer to that is obvious - because it&#039;s not good business to do so. It is not good business to produce a product that you lose money on.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regarding your question about the Kointains - they won&#039;t fit.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
