Default RE: why are they so expensive??

I also marvel at the cost of SETUP, nevermind materials and production.

When Alan (or anyone else) make 2 or 3 trips to China to tweak prototypes in pre-production and make suggested improvements during production...that's easily $10-15000 in expenses.

How many kits do you need to sell to recover just that cost alone ?
