*considers for a few moments, reevaluating part of the matter as a result of the 'competition' line of thought* Why do they mind what prices the Windstones are sold at? If the dealers buy the Windstones from the maker/s at the same price no matter what, then doesn't the price sold at on the open market only affect the dealer's profit margin? (Attempting to keep prices high doesn't clearly make sense if they're willing to sell Windstones through dealers (at all) for a given price.)
