I am usually on the bandwagon with disliking MA prices and practices, but I can't really see the issue with this one. If people want to buy it without doing any research then let them, it's just as much the consumers job to know what they are spending their money on. If you buy something, then find out you could have gotten it way cheaper if you would have done a little research, it won't happen again, you learn your lesson.

This hobby is full of ridiculous markup, but you rarely see other brands getting bashed. A 35mL bottle of Xray silicone oil selling for $15, or a bag of 6 diff o-rings selling for $5, and there are many more examples. I can understand the frustration with all the markup on our hobby products, but MA is not the only one doing it.
