like i said, anyone with a dna20 chip could make this.
instead of making blatant statements that mean nothing, why dont you elaborate a little. like i said, all it takes to make this mod is aluminum tubes (probably about $2 worth), a little wire (about $.03) and a few minutes of soldering. BAM! $250 mod!
Sure, if they paid enough. It would cost a HELL of a lot more than $240.

I make perfect sense. You may not understand me, but that doesn't make what I'm saying wrong in any way.
then please, elaborate your point instead of making vague statements or silence your presence in this thread.
for everything to make this mod, it would not go over 100, especially at wholesale pricing
Minus the Board inside, not that much more than a Vamo, That is, as long as it is Made in China.
Where is this "Provari Killer" made?
i already did. ALUMINUM tubing, probably right around $2. wires, right around $.03. solder, right around $.01. springs, right around $.10. dna20, maximum $50, wholesale you get a much better deal. throwing it all together, maybe 1 hour total if your slow. explain to me where that comes above $100
your turn, explain your position on this. i think you know nothing and are just slinging out statements with no knowledge to back it up
Where's your custom machinework cost? R&D costs?
Mods like this don't suddenly appear ready for assembly.
DNA-20 chip, around $40, I can mass produce the tube in SS, one operation, one machine, for around $30, the buttons, maybe $4?, assembly is as hard as you want to make it and maybe $1 for a Lexan screen.
I spent 13yrs in machine shops and run equipment most people don't even know exists, it's very doable! I even helped a member here design a box mod with a DNA-20 in it that was VERY durable! Problem was, it was aluminum so it was large and heavy, but you could drive a car over the thing! Only one was made, so not many will ever see it, but this "Cyborg" is doable for less.
I would like to order a cyborg tube for $30. What is your paypal address?
r&d costs? they didnt even make the chip, it was already made and has been on the market for some time.
also, custom machining is NOT expensive for aluminum. im not bashing the dna20, its a great chip, but this mod is not a good example of using the dna20. theres a reason you see aluminum mods selling for 30 bucks, because it costs nothing to make them
edit: on top of that, they didnt even have to tinker with the threading, they just used the evics threading!! now the r&d cost is truly $0

Lol like the material is the major cost for custom machining.
The reason you see low cost mods is they are made completely in China by Chinese companies.
As I said, I can MASS produce them, not "one off" them! No way will I write a program for a 7 axis lathe for one!
you were just told by a custom machinist in AMERICA that your "custom machining" could be done for under $30 and thats with stainless steel instead of aluminum
many dna20 mods have earned their $200 price tag. this one falls into the category of ones that dont, along with the opus d
