Good triggers cost $$$ as they must be held to incredibly close tolerances in order to be a "good trigger" as well as a safe trigger. What he said. And if you think these guys are getting rich off this stuff, because "people buy them", think again.

Thus we come to the conclusion that FPV goggles are expensive (if they really are) because something short of excellent would definitely affect the company's sales, not to mention the user's experience. Imagine what it's like piloting a drone with cheap components and flawed coding.

Why are VFDs so expensive? ... Because motors that size are often single phase, in which case you may not need a VFD and could perhaps use a much cheaper and simpler controller.

The materials used in a Rolex are very expensive. That in combination with an overwhelming market demand makes a Rolex watch a more expensive than many of the other brand names.

I got a set of super cheap chisels that are ok when they are sharp, but they don't hold an edge very well... "Everybody" thinks Bahco is great, and it's the most expensive of the cheap brands. As I see it, it could go two ways: it's overpriced and you're paying for a name, or it's a steal since it's a quality brand...

The material in a kydex holster probably isn't more than a buck or two - the tooling is the biggest cost. I believe that all politicians are born with a genetic flaw that compels them to meddle in the affairs of others. Molds are expensive. VERY expensive.

SCCY CPX Specs A horrible trigger and serious reliability issues make this gun less than optimal. At any price point, a gun should not sacrifice its basic purpose: to provide the shooter with a safe and and reliable way to fire a gun.

Leica is expensive because it's expensive. In other words: that's their market niche and they won't be able to escape from it. If your prices are high, you won't be able to sell a lot so all you can do is ask a lot of money for your products to cover your relatively high expenses. There is a historical reason for it.

Low Quantities Equal High Prices This is why Audemars Piguet watches are expensive because they create a limited amount of pieces. The more unique the timepiece, the more likely it is to be personalized. This also makes it tough to create its components, which cost even more.

they do have a few intro level lines that are more fashion oriented than about performance that are priced in the sub $200 range. That said, the expensive Suunto's, despite how people choose to wear them, are primarily designed to be professional use tools with very accurate sensors.

The FN brand they have a little bit more, but that's not an awful price and can be found a little cheaper online. It's probably not "worth it" in the absolute sense, i.e., you can find another gun that will be just as useful (or more so) in practical terms, for less money.

I personally do not think it is worth it to by a Riedel. It's way over priced and most of the crystal glass they use has lead in it.

Watches purchased in Switzerland might not be cheaper but could be different models compared to models available in the United States. ... Swiss watches are uniformly expensive.

HMI is a different beast altogether and is more like elecronic flash running at high frequency and so simulates continuous light from multiple pulses in the same way as fluorescents. This complexity makes HMI the most expensive of all.

Sounds like a decent price for a service. In DK, independent, experienced watchmakers charge ~250 - 420 USD for a service depending on the caliber.
