Sorry, the best they can do is triple prices because they want to give the appearance of being "premium".
Oh and those kiosks I'm sure are provided by a company run by someone on the Board, and cost multiple thousands for something that could be done with a $500 touchscreen and a Raspberry Pi.
And software run by yet another provider on the Board that has a dev team comprised of everyone's nephew trying to use AI to vibe code it.
