I agree it's getting out of hand. $450 for a gear sequencer? For about the same amount of money you can buy a Playstation 3, Xbox 360, iPhone, iPad, etc, all of which are more complex and costly to manufacturer.
True.... But they also sell millions of these! If they only produced say 3000 iphones, what do you think they would cost?
Our cost on almost everything has gone up, including freight. Unfortunately, the state of the economy is not helping. We have tried to offer more economical versions of products, like servos for example; they don't sell... no one wants to risk their expensive aircraft to "off brand" electronics.
We are certainly open to finding more cost conscious product lines if you guys are open to using them. History has shown this not to be the case but perhaps your opinions of these products is changing? Tell me what you want and I will see what I can do...
