Dude you are so off the wall backwards it is really pathetic. A person like me can cut the cost in half because I own my own mill, I have no employees to pay, no electric bills for more machines.
I can make a maze2 for myself for $12.00 complete. All the blocks I posted on my site cost ME less than $9 total. If I had employees to pay that would double without making a profit.
I pay the same for material as DD does because I can buy it through the company I work for at their bulk discount at cost.
I also ment $1.50 for 2 barbs not one. Any local hardware store charges between $1 and $1.75 for ONE. Buy them by the 100 and they are about .75 each.
R&D for Swiftech is much more than DD. Their blocks are designed by design enginers that are PAID. No that cost is not much and is made up for.
$8-$20 was for the price to pay the employee for an hour of work for one block. Add that to the rest of the materials.
If you do not want to pay for the performance of a already made block then don't.
realize MOST people do not have the tools to make their own blocks so these companies are their only hope aswell.
You have really missed the reality boat in your journey in life. Your posts have been the most ignorant I have seen here before.
In one post you are wanting water cooling to go mainstream, but in this post you don't want to pay for it???
