Message	Unless you really knew someone in the industry that could help you to lower the costs . But cost for each injected plastic parts would be very cheap. But what determines his final price is how fast he would like to get his investment back and the qty the he is targeting to sell . For example mold charge would be $7500 sell 30 @ $250 = $7500 Or sell 200 @ $125 = $25000 Here is where most people fail and leaves an open spot for someone to copy your part. When you offer a new part/creation you should target a price that it wouldn't be attractive/worthwhile for someone to copy it.
