I don't know why he didn't raise the price. It's the obvious thing to do if overheads are eating you up, and he could have sold the things for 3 or 4 dollars. Or more, over the internet, if he'd mischievously tagged 'shipping and handling' to the price.

Same here. I think people would have payed ten dollars for his product.

Could have potentially shipped it directly from Thailand too.
