That's exactly 100% correct. 'Silly' and 'technically illegal' is what those that spend time in the big-house always say as well. It's been unlawful for more than 100 years, some of you learned all about it in business classes while in college, as it's a BIG deal at "any" level.
I know I've explained this before, but maybe not here -- when you guys have a casual non-binding friendly conversation about what you charge ...
it influences everybody who reads it, that influence may tend to encourage them to charge a bit more at their "level" TRANSLATE:
sodimize the consumer possibly with egregious rates, fees & charges
Therefore please don't talk about pricing even in a round-about way --- ya never know who's reading and someday (when you've become the big-shot you strive to become) THAT DAY is when they might surprise you!
This is called friendly advise
