The only thing that will change it, is if we stop buying it. It really is that simple.
I guess nobody wants to go back to sitting up all night under a 45" brolly like we used to when i were a lad.

There is? If you can't afford a Tempest RS there are plenty of options from the likes of Sonik and Pro Logic. If you can't afford the newest Power Porter you have options to convert a standard barrow or just push it yourself.
There is tons of low cost, decent quality gear available. You can probably get better quality fishing equipment for a lower relative cost than at any time in the past. Every industry has equipment available that is out of some people's reach, I'm not sure why it causes such incredulity on this forum.

Yep, but I push mine so it doesn't offend me!
You can spend £4K on a golf trolley, £10K on a surf board, £15K on a mountain bike...

its not that I cant afford it, its on principle, I will quite happily pay the money for decent gear if I think the value is there....withba 1800 porter and 900 rs bivvy I dont think you are getting value for money....on principle im not buying a rs tempest..im using a v2 tempest brolly still and cant justify what you get for the money is that much better than what I have....while people.pay it they'll keep upping the price. I remeber about 5 years ago nash started soing hoodys for 60 quid testing the water, they flew out,now their hoody can be up and around 90 quid

But your personal principles are irrelevant if other people do see value and are willing to pay the asking price. These companies are here to make profit and pay their employees and shareholders. Why is that offensive if there are lower cost options available that you see as better value?
If the price IS too high and nobody buys them they got it wrong. If they sell a load then they got it right and it's smart business. By several accounts the new Tempests are doing well, plenty of people on here have paid the asking price and are happy. What's the problem if you also have the option to buy something cheaper?
Or not buy anything at all ?

at the minute im buying nothing at all....and hopefully when they release the rs v2 which is "so much better" than the the rs it will be at a price point i think is more value for money...dont forget thought the v2 rs will be nowhere near as good as the rs v3 🙄

Let's face it its a fashion show and those with big enough wallets/ego's will always be more than happy to get their pants pulled down just so they can parade the next big thing around the lake, peacocking around while fake moaning about how much it cost 😂😂

Personally, I think Fox are going to put a big dent in Trakker sales.
As for these barrows, you can buy a cheap Chinese electric quad and trailer for less than the price of these barrows..probably all made in China...go figure.
