I doubt that even packaging would be that expensive. I myself ran warehousing, and packaging operations in Richmond, BC, Canada with local labour, packing bulk headphones, and USB chargers. It takes 20 seconds to unwrap a heaphone, and nicely pack it, or 40 seconds on average if you account for people not being robots, and making breaks, going to bathroom. You get around 500-600 packed headphones per worker, per day. If you pay CAD $120-$140 a day (back in days when CAD was > USD,) it's just ¢40-¢50 per pack if you ad for other employment expenses. Easily, easily doable for a product selling for $30, whole costing near nothing in parts, and materials.
