because not everyone hears the local or community gossip
about home depot's merchandise being crap
they have a huge customer BASE ...Toro has to keep the lights on,
their employees paid on time....and all that, so when they sell a huge chunk of
lawnmowers to one customer even at "almost" a loss
it brings in revenue that acomplished that objective.
doesn't matter if they sell slow or fast at home depot
it's not TORO's problem once they (HD) takes delivery
nation wide.
