But you also have to consider that the large retail chains are selling the more expensive primary devices en masse which in turn enlarges the aggregate of profits pertaining to these devices, compared to the smaller retail chains or individual businesses that generally sell primary devices at more of a mark up. The consumer will most generally buy at a reputable store/chain where...
I worked in the retail industry for computers for quite a few years. The reality - Intel, AMD, Microsoft and several other vendors provide products for sale in a retail environment with the lowest margin for profit. Examples would be Windows that sells for $90 would cost the retail establishment $85. Most of the products that a computer store makes money on are accessories, not the processors.

what kind of accessories did you see sell the most? Coolers, fans? bags?

I honestly was thinking big ticket item and sell a lot, but if you have good advice profit & demand wise I would like to hear.

thanks.
 
The theory behind big retailers generally is you have a big ticket item like a big screen TV. You make a minimal markup. Then you need to sell him items like a HDMI cable, BluRay Player, movies, batteries for remote, a universal remote, etc., etc....

It is referred to as add-on sales. You make $50 on the $1,500 TV, but you make $200 for the add-ons.

The consumer will most generally buy at a reputable store/chain where they can typically get the product that they want at a lower price. Retail stores like Walmart or Best Buy aren't struggling to turn a considerable amount of profit annually through the merchant types of profiteering, while the corporations who actually own the factories that create the products in either developing countries or those who have a low cost labor force for a number of reasons are profiting the most, while the workers are the ones bearing the burden for this discrepancy between pay and conditions and the extraction of profit from through the value of a commodity produced by their labor. The more complex the socially necessary labor with less production turnover as well as the costs of capital used in the production process which is also socially determined by labor, the more expensive the product as once again determined by this labor in market value, yet capitalists can still compensate for this by utilizing those lower cost labor forces to drive an even further gap between the wages paid (necessary value) and the value (labor value) produced.

I wasn't even sure if there was a point to this thread, so I kinda just went along with how the discussion was trending given that I found it interesting. Funnily enough, if we lived in some type of market socialist economy (which I am not an advocate for as I think while markets are efficient in the handling of logistics and the allocation of resources compared to central planning, that there's many negative aspects to them including incessant competition not necessarily being the only catalyst for innovation, as opposed to need and pleasure, rather than being wasteful in the amount of resources utilized in production to remain relevant to the market), we'd be able to buy everything at a lower cost by cutting out the capitalists, retail, factory or otherwise, while still being able to improve our living standards. So it'd be a win for consumers and workers as consumers/workers in some aspects. Still, monopolies so long as we live in a capitalist society are bad for consumers.
