San Francisco and Dallas, 1984 to 2026. Two companies try the same experiment forty years into a system built to keep prices unexplained: they print what the thing cost them, add a stated margin, and ask the customer to judge. Michael Preysman does it with a cotton T-shirt and a factory in Los Angeles; Mark Cuban and a radiologist named Alexander Oshmyansky do it with a bottle of generic pills and a formula anyone can check. Both find buyers. Both also find out what the markup was paying for — the returns, the sizing, the inventory risk, the prior authorization, the pharmacist — and which of those costs a published price removes, and which it merely moves somewhere the page does not show. Covers Michael Preysman, Mark Cuban, Alexander Oshmyansky, Everlane, and Cost Plus Drugs.
