To pay for cabinets, development, dealers, insurance, boxes, shipping, phone/interned advertising, warranty, lawyers and taxes, and have someone to do work for free in open space that you do not pay, you are right on the mark.
If you pay all of that, price is about right; at least 3, up to 5, times material cost.
Are they that good, have not idea, but that is different story. If you think that you can commercially produce something similar for less be my guest.
It is not surprising how many people have no idea what is involved to do certain type of work, and then complain about the price. What is surprising is that they do not even try to find that out.
