You know how big of a mark up is on tools? They are still making money, just not as much. Just for instance, my cost on 22 dollar mechanix gloves is 5.50. I'm sure our cost on those gear wrenches is like 15 bucks.

36 dollars has GOT to be close to invoice. But yes, mark up are pretty nuts these days

Not on everything...new cars, performance parts, and virtually everything electronics are minuscule markups at best.

Unless it's for the disabled. We have a design project for school and are pricing out parts and have found that the cheapest you can get a switch for a wheelchair bound person is ~$90. The entire switch costs less than $5 to manufacture.
