Any one with any sense will go to sniff out the competition that seems to have a superior product, packaging etc., Its good business but you have to draw the line when they get too personal. If he asks you for your formula or any other secrets, just say "well you know, time is money so get out your check book" and when he says "what for?" Just say you put a high price on your secrets. Watch him retreat and never ask stupid questions again....
