> [@England1414](#): > > no offense to anyone, but i hate it when people make strings and sell like 10 for 5 bucks I can apprecitate that. I am simply trying to show people how cool homemades are. If you dislike the price I would simply say try making some at home. Most of my strings take a significant amount of time, and most people say time is money. I also think that my strings are some of the cheapest homemades out there. LESS THAN 50 cents per string generally unless the material is expensive. ---

> [@rdh2121](#): > > Sooo… you hate it when people: put a lot of time and money into figuring out thread mixtures, styles, colors, and types that play and look best; buy the best materials for each specific type, which can be very expensive, such as the metallic string for the sonomas; send out countless free strings to testers to ensure the very highest quality; and put a reasonable price on those strings when they finally do go to market to try to account for R&D costs, materials costs, time and labor actually making the strings, and shipping costs to the final customer? > > Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but, no offense to anyone, I hate it when somebody who hasn’t devoted such time and effort to a project like that, and who probably hasn’t even tried the strings (which are gorgeous and play great) accuses someone of price gouging. i have put the time in to doing that, in fact, im an anodizer and do mods on a lathe, so i know how hard it is to do these things, i just dont like it, im not trying to be mean at all to anyone ---

^ I understand. My simple advise is simply make some string, and avoid the cost I make string for those who either don’t know how to make, or don’t want to make string, or those who like my style. Also I Pm’d you about about an ano job. Did you get that message. ---
