Yeah if you want a fish tales topper you have to pay what they want. I don’t see why the OP is complaining, you’ll just pass it off to your customer, as I would.
I sold one for $500 like 5 years ago to a retailer and the guy was pleading, hey at least can you cover shipping?
I’m all “dude I’m not trying to be a dick here but if you are willing to pay $500 for a plastic fish I’m sure you are willing to pay the $50 shipping right?”
He was.
