>For most markets you just can't buy what you want. Even if you would be willing to pay 2 to 4 times.

This is a problem I see everywhere... People have no idea that mass production leads to order of magnitude reduction in costs or more.

In most products you buy today there is a 4X price range between low to high end products. When suddenly you're talking about 10-100X price range people go with why they can buy.

You'd think HNers would have a better idea on manufacturing costs.
