I've got the retail prices for this line from the Pacific NW dealer.

The 35 Seville Express is $209,000.
35 Seville Sedan is $219,000.
37 Seville Pilothouse is $249,000
40 Double Cabin is $259,000
40 Sedan is $259,000

Those prices are with standard power (135HP single diesel) and are
FOB,
PROC. Larger singles and twins are available.

If you think these boats are reminiscent of the CHB brands that sold
like hotcakes last time fuel prices went through the roof and selling
prices for boats in general were getting beyond the comfort zone of
mere mortal wage earners--- you're right. :-)

In my opinion? Behold the future of powerboating in America. Not just
this specific brand or these specific boats, but a greater number of
vessels of this general type.


They actually never went away, did they?

Some corporate politics, disputes over molds and trademarks, etc, kept
a lot of the Chinese mass pro small trawlers down to a very low profile
in the market during the last several years. Watch for a very big
marketing push. The importer thinks the time is right. :-)


**** on the Chinese.


I heard they have plans for mobile dental clinics in the future.
Dental work at half the price. Watch for one coming to you soon.

A half price filling, crown or root canal would probably have you wishing
you had paid full price when that weekend toothache flared up.





But, what is the "right price"? All dentists don't charge the same.

As if price were truly an indication of skill or proper process. Most
dental practices these days are studies in efficiency. How many
patients can the doctor see and charge for, spending as little time as
possible with each.

You want the guy who charges right in the middle of the range for your area.
You don't want the cheapest guy...and the most expensive guy is probably
using the same lab as the middle-of-the-road guy.

Because of shows like Extreme Makeover, I now get patients asking for
brand-specific crowns and veneers: "I want a Da Vinci veneer". I tell them
that Da Vinci is the name of the lab...but they use porcelain veneer
material that is available from any good lab. I have a local lab tech that
charges about 40% less than what Da Vinci charges for their veneers...and
she does as nice a job (if not better) than Da Vinci.

If patients ask for "Lumineers", then that's a proprietary product made by
a lab named Cerinate (a division of Den-Mat). From my experience there *is*
a difference between the Lumineer and what other labs are offering.
Lumineers can be made thinner, requiring less tooth reduction. They're very
nice looking, but not quite as esthetic as some of the other systems
(IMO)...but you're trading esthetics for the ability to conserve more
healthy tooth structure.
