Trying to understand the rational. Why are they better? If anything matzo is very difficult to establish and the properly implement good processes and procedures...
I said they are at least as good, doesnt mean they are better. Although I believe that the hidurim and chumros that are implemented in the American matzo process are probably better than the Badatz commercialized process.  Would Satmar eat Badatz over their own? I doubt it.

And why do you assume that Badatz is able to better implement processes and procedures over any of the other chasidish bakeries? I find it much harder to believe that Israeli processes and procedures are better than American ones.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

You think that Eida hechsher on Matzos is better than most heimishe hechsherim on the Brooklyn bakeries?

Does Bingo sell hand shmurah? If so- does anyone know the cost per lb?

Costco is the cheapest - but you get what you pay for- yuck.

Went to Charedim last week. $38 for broken, $42 for Whole.

I love their Matzo but I found a receipt from 2 years ago where I paid $29 a lb for whole!

Thats an insane price increase...

I bought at Bingo, they increased the price of the $8.99 Matzah to $9.99. While not a big difference, I find it ridiculous that they increased their price from one week to another.

+1
I'm pretty sure he's losing on many projects as he corners the market(maybe knock out a competitor or 2) before the prices go to normal (cheap, but normal range) prices.
The reason he's doing this is plain and simple, because he can.

Predatory pricing is illegal, and may be halachikly assur.

Loss leader is legal. Predatory pricing is not. Issue is its hard to prove.
