Guest guest Posted November 20, 2004 Report Share Posted November 20, 2004 Hi, It's the law of supply and demand. They demand the high prices, and we are will to supply them with the money, until people stop supplying them with the money for the classes they're asking for they will continue to demand the money. My solution is to buy their books and audio and video tapes and DVD's, that way not only do I see them demonstrate once, I can see them over and over prepare something, and answer my questions about preparing something. And I haven't really seen any one of their video demo tapes over priced. I own all of Victoria Boutenko's, Alissa Cohen's, Cherie Soria's, and Nomi Shannon's video tapes. So, I now have Victoria Boutenko, Alissa Cohen, Cherie Soria, and Nomi Shannon in my home and they are willing to teach me any time day or night what I want to learn about raw food preparation.

Guest guest Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 I am saving money now to purchase books and videos by Shazzie. I borrow books from the local library. I am a college student working part time and my income is very limited right now, so high priced classes are out of the question. But I agree, books and videos are better alternatives for those who can't really afford the classes.--- In rawfood , " Dale Wing " <dwing@n...> wrote: > > Hi, > > It's the law of supply and demand.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2004 Report Share Posted November 23, 2004 Dale, I think this is an excellent point and im going to buy alissa cohens first. It is frustrating to meet such high prices for raw teachings!!! sad health and food prep still cheaper =( actually seeing what's going on in prep and steps is priceless... (in my opinion) btw Dale love your website! again- the visuals on your site make it so much easier to learn. and know you're on the right track! keep up the great work!!!!! my best, perryanne =) - Dale Wing rawfood Saturday, November 20, 2004 2:06 AM [Raw Food] Re: Excess Fees for Raw Food Classes Hi, It's the law of supply and demand.
