That's the nature of corporations unfortunately, the only way they can work out what the market will truly bear is by tracking demand. Once demand begins to fall off they'll know what the "price" is.

I'm mildy surprised they haven't increased the Wilson's Prom camping prices more, they definitely cost more to run than bush camping. Then again that'd probably get more of the mainstream family types up in arms and more pepole would notice / protest as opposed to us fringe outdoors groups.
