I think you missed my point... I was not trying to say whether or not the ranges were correct, I was trying to say we should *announce* exact prices and then allow for individual cases to be negotiated. If we say "up to $2000" then $SPONSOR comes along and says "I've got $500 available, so I'd like to buy a Steel sponsorship. $SPONSOR2 comes along and says "I want a Bronze sponsorship for $2001 please". I don't think that anyone here would think either of those scenarios is 'fair play', and so we should instead announce our *target* prices. This would allow us to retain greater control over when, and whether, the prices would be relaxed in individual cases.
