Other people had their views, some were valid but some were purely because they got what they wanted at a discount rate. Some were also beligerant but I doubt that would be your official position. One person even implied that I am trolling for simply asking for your clarification regardless if my content was mathematically sound.

I was just asking about the fairness of the price model, i am not asking for the non logo item to be cheaper.
We've established:
1. It cost more to produce the item with logo.
2. It is a discount at its current price - so perhaps a 250 item for 200.
3. without logo - no discount and adds price.
4. JPM can do whatever they like, charge more or don't even offer it as a option for others.

I have no logical problems with 1,2 and 4.
As for 3, no discount is fair, adding price just covers 1.
I think the fact that you're looking for justification in the first place is flawed. JPM creates a product/service and is within their rights to add their logo. Like any company, its to establish their identity on the product and create exposure. Consider yourself lucky that JPM is even offering the option to remove their logo entirely. Again, it's like asking any company out there to remove their brand from any product you buy i.e. Oakley sunglasses, Nike shoes, Scion FR-S.
