VUE could not make such a guarantee against price reduction except for
the fact that Rogers Radios, at their list . prices, .represent the, greatest
value that your money can buy.
At these prices. Rogers Radios compete with all other
radios on the market. We .can make a move of. this
kind only because i we know thatour present prices
are attractive enough to continue to give us Canada's
greatest volume of radio business.
Doesn't it give you a feeling of satisfaction and con=
• fidence to buy your radio under those conditions?
You know that the price you . pay now will be the
same when your neighbour buys the same model
three or four months from now.
You can depend on Rogers Radios for performance,
for every new, worthwhile development in radio,
for stability of prices, for maximum value for every
dollar invested.
