Quoted from PtownPin:Nothing wrong with someone trying to market their product...this shit happens all the time on this site....what I don't really understand is why these nuts cost so much, and why it bothers me ? you can purchase these nuts retail (amazon) for $.10/unit, which means the cost is probably half that if not less....I can't imagine anodizing 1000's of nuts in China at time adds much to the cost. If this guy is truly the manufacturer, and these were priced appropriately they would sell 10x more....
I brought in anodized nuts maybe 9 years ago.
In Metric sizes, then as now, in quantity they cost very little.
The issue was 10,000 minimum, 100,000 made sense back then to thread to US over Metric.
I shared them with many current Vendors, and while there were no negatives, the demand was simply not strong enough.
Pricing is whatever someone is willing to pay, but the time for a small company to handle, process, and ship, is more part of the equation.
Shipping from China to US, is under $1.00 with packaging, but $3.00 for first class from here.
