Well, yeah, a restaurant can buy more ingredients at a time which makes it cheaper since they get a bulk discount. While you pay $3 for that sandwich, the restaurant only pays $1.50. If the DIY EpiPen costs you $30, then a factory probably churn one out for $15.
- mc32 10y agoSo if we're applying restaurant maths to this they might be okay charging $45 or double it to $90 for their proprietary delivery system?
- iopq 10y agoLet's just say some number between $50 and $100 is what a company would charge for it. Someone said the old price was $57, which is right about where our back of the napkin math put it.
- ascorbic 10y agoThe cost of this project includes $28 for buying the insulin autoinjector at retail. There is no way it costs $30 to manufacture. I'd be amazed if they cost $5. Injection moulded plastic is extremely cheap once you've made the moulds.
