It's a hand made item and it's made in America. There is a time and place for the big box stores and the items they sell. But, as Americans, we must get out of this WalMart mentality. The lid is worth $10. Plain and simple. Roll Tide

You can't compare something hand-crafted to something mass-produced. The lid cost well worth it and totally fair.

I really respect the fact you don't buy the cheapest material for your products Tinny. Is show's that you are not focused on profit margins, and instead on product quality.

You could make a blanking die that punches the center hole and blanks the diameter in one hit. It would really streamline your process. Or try a sheet metal shear from harbor freight. You could set up stops and shear a whole sheet into square or octagonal blanks in minutes. The end all be all would be a progressive die you would need piercing, lancing ,forming ,and a blanking station. But unless you plan on selling literally millions of lids the tooling would be cost prohibitive.

what happened to the M6 with the "spill-proof" bottom?

You can get beer cans for $0.06?! And I have been buying Foster's for about $2 each! The beers not even that good! I know cause I am drinking one now...

I got one of the rings and was happy with the $7. I would like to get the IMUSA lid but will put it in with another order one day...maybe an M stove... :)

I think the price is fair and to the best of my knowledge you are the only one making lides for the IMUSA 10cm cup.

I think it was just a question. Most people don't know what goes into making a product. I think the question is can you sell the lids for say $8 and still make a great profit? If the answer is no then $10 is the price. With that said, everything I have from Tinny is great and well worth the price paid.

I'm self employed as well and love it when people say huh why so much I could've got It cheaper at such and such. My thinking is why didn't ya. Oh I know cause the other folks stuff su u ucks. When you have both in stock the 12 and the 10 cm I'll ordered one of each.

Your price is fine Tin Man . In fact I'de like to see one of these complainers figure a way to make what you make on their own. Knowledge is power and you are gifted .
