Moss marks up quite a bit of its Automobilia items. I think the item(s)
that are most substantially marked up are the reproduction factory dealer
signs. Moss makes anywhere from $20 to $10 on the sign depending on size.
Now consider that the most expensive sign costs $50 from Moss, and costs $48
from VB... (that specific sign costs $30 elsewhere) and you can see that the
larger commercial organizations are just making loads of money from the
accessories and automoblia.
