So James, you are proposing to enter the market and establish yourself as a low price - low quality brand and work it up from there. That's not something I'd do. In my experience once you establish yourself as a low price/low quality brand, it's awfully difficult to get out of that bracket and takes a loong time.

My 2 cents.
