I know what the keystone mark up is - (selling something for twice what you purchased it for) but I want to know where it comes from and why that term is used.

Thanks!

  1. Erac Q, or What

    Okay, here’s the deal… This question’s been sitting here for (what?) like a week unanswered, right? So apparently no one else knows the answer, either. So it’s time for you to Google it or use wikipedia.

    Thanks for the 2 points.

    Cheers!
