Not what I wrote, which was that the accommodation price for reviewers is
generally the same as the price a retailer pays, ie, 40%-70% _of_ the retail
price, depending on the kind of product.
There are also conditions attached to such purchases, such as that the
reviewer not sell the product for a certain length of time, or that if
he does wish eventually to sell it, that the manufacturer be allowed to
buy it back for the price paid for it.
