Can Shutters Still Outsell Blinds in Las Vegas When They Cost More and Show Less View?

Can Shutters Still Outsell Blinds in Las Vegas When They Cost More and Show Less View?  On paper, blinds should win in Las Vegas every time. Blinds are cheaper. They disappear when you open them, giving you 100% of your view - critical when you paid for a Strip view or a mountain view.

Custom was custom. If you wanted real wood shutters, Roman shades, or motorization, you paid a true luxury price - often $400-$800 per window installed. It was a status item. Motorization was rare, loud, and required hard-wiring by an electrician, so it added hundreds per window. The average homeowner spent very little, because the focus was on granite and tile, n...
