Actually, I do understand that they cannot sell it for less than they paid for it and remain in business very long. I just notice that when prices are on the rise, our local (within a 20 mile radius) prices go up, by three to eight cents a gallon, a few times a week, sometimes daily. But it takes a month for our local prices to edge down. This is a rural area, and the number of customers is very consistent. We can't avoid buying gas locally. So, how is it logical that daily we burn through a certain amount of gas during significant price increases, evidenced by cost of new, more expensive inventory,and when prices are falling, we suddenly aren't using nearly as much and it takes a month to deplete old inventory?
I'm not trying to be argumentative. My original post was intended as a mild complaint of how long it is taking gas prices to fall around here. I am sorta surprised it could be interpreted as an illogical belief in a conspiracy theory. I guess I intended it more as a cynical observation/comment. My apologies.
