I understand that a new machine with the ATC included costs less
than that. I told you, I have to buy the complete machine, rip off
the ATC, repackage and ship just the ATC to you. There's a bunch of
labor, freight and material cost right there. Then I have to dispose
of the rest of the machine. Because of some of the special materials
contained therein, and because those durn environmentalists like
to get in there and foul everything all up for everyone, the disposal
costs are quite high. I can't just send the thing to the landfill,
you know.

So, you see, it's mainly the fault of those durn environmentalists.
You need to write your congressman. Unless you're not from the US.
In that case you should write to *MY* congressman.

I'm sorry, but there isn't much I can do about the price. That's
just the way it is, I'm afraid.

Oh, why didn't you say so? In that case the price will be $345,456.87.

It costs extra 'cause I have to charge you for the disposal of the rest
of the machine that I have to throw away after stripping off the ATC to
sell to you.

How soon do you need it? Rush orders cost extra...

I think you will be mistaken about the price.
New Machine with new ATC cost less.
