Re: MOTM-910 1U mult (pricing?)

>>Price is $99 (assembled, with 4 mounting screws)<<

I don't want to sound ungrateful now that a 1U multiple is finally coming 
available (and a nice design at that), but is it just me or is the pricing on 
this thing way lopsided, especially when compared to the 2U MOTM-940 patch 
panel.  When it was announced a few weeks ago for $90 I dropped the idea of 
buying multiple multiples.  Now the price goes up again.  There has to be 
some logical explaination.

The labor on the '910 was $7.50 *higher* than I estimated. That's why the
price
went from $89 to $99. Yep, I'm just *rolling* in the dough!

At least it's not priced like a RA Moog dual 4-way mult ($239 on eBay).

I see.  I'm or course not implying that you are rolling in the dough.  It 
just seems like both the parts and labor cost would be greater on the 940 
patch panel.  Unless there is something sophisticated behind the 910 panel, 
it seems like it could be an easy kit with just a paragraph of assembly 
instructions.
