And they would sell - it's half the price of the competition, after all. $8.00 US, which, even with a substantial mark-up (typically 30-50%), would only make it about $12 at the retail level, which this is not.Īnd this is before any quantity discounts for large orders (500-1000 or more pcs), which any case mfgr worth a crap would be doing simply due to the economies of scale and/or pre-negotiated purchasing contracts.Īnd before anyone asks, I am privy to this type of info due to my involvement in electrical/electronics design, estimating, engineering, manufacturing, and sales :)If that was actually the case, why are there no cheap risers of decent quality available off AliExpress, TaoBao, eBay or similar places? If it was that easy - order 500 of them at $8 or below a pop - you could make a killing just by selling them at $12-15 like you say on one of those places, with near zero overhead costs as most sellers on these sites are tiny stores and have bare-bones warranties etc. Last time I checked (a few months ago) the mfgr's COSTS for a high-quality, standard length riser cable was approx.

Still, tooling even for a small mass-produced case can cost hundreds of thousands of dollars to manufacture. There's also the issue of lack of economics of scale in the SFF space - due to compatibility issues and the sheer number of different layouts possible it's really hard to reach sufficient sales volumes to make cases cheaper - though hopefully we'll see developments of cases like the InWin A1 or Corsair QBX moving to SFX PSUs in the near future for some more space savings. I'd be interested in seeing someone launch a £70-£80 budget option (regardless of build quality, as long as its built to last).'Regardless of build quality, as long as it's built to last' is a rather contradictory statement.Īlso, sandwich-layout cases aren't becoming that cheap any time soon simply due to the requirement for a quality PCIe riser cable, which is easily a $30 cost to the manufacturer - which will obviously become higher than that when passed on to the end user.
