There you have it. The prices may drop 'a bit.' It's highly improbable that they would drop to the figures you mentioned earlier.

thats how the ethics of marketing happens.
I'm a marketing graduate, and let me tell you: There are no ethics in marketing. People are ignorant/foolish enough to buy almost anything, and there will be marketers around to take advantage of these gullible ones. Ever hear of the pet rock? Maybe you meant principles of marketing.

once the cars decrease in value, the savings more than likley will be passed on to the customer.
It's a possibility that there will be some savings due to depreciation, but then again, I already said that before. The rate of depreciation on Skylines would need to be looked into. If they hold their value pretty well, forget about it. It would take too long for the value to go down much.

if there are more people purchasing skylines, then the RIs can purchase the materials required in bulk which would be cheaper for them.
Motorex is probably buying the conversion materials in bulk as it is. There's no logic in buying a set of the materials for only one car at a time, especially since they probably buy their Skylines 'in bulk' as well, getting a few in each shipment. If RB Motoring becomes certified to do legalization, they will probably do the same thing. Basically, there probably aren't any real savings to be found.
