materials cost $50, shipping $40, so no i will not pay $100 labor, especially for a box that i really don't need

well, you could pay retail for an old XXX and the box will still be approx the same $... add $5-10 for the double baffle... and thats it.

Sorry, I don't build less of a box for cheaper woofers.

And, thats a great price //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

not old enough to realize the cost of skilled labor...

If I was an electrician or a plumber, "100" for 4-6 hours of labor would be a hell of a deal.

Tell a plumber you'll give em $100 for him to work @ your house for 6 hours, he will laugh in your face.

What is the going rate for an aeroport box, perfect construction (no funky edges... which should be a given), quality design, good carpet (not felt), and 6-10 feet of 12ga wire?

Yeah, if you don't need it. Can't expect people to make these things for free tho. People act like they want to buy a box shipped from someone for the price it would cost them to make it themselves though.

I built the last 5 enclosures for my car and pretty much figured out what was going and not going to work. Then talked it through with him and figured out what I wanted. I think the price I payed was pretty reasonable for me not having to do anything. Especially when you consider if you buy 6" aero ports from that site they want like $60 a piece for them. TBH I didn't consider buying a box from him when I saw his older stuff. I can build decent MDF boxes all day long. But now I want a really nice final box in birch that will last me at least until I sell the car, so I payed the price for it.

idk but for a dual 12, wit slot port plugs, double baffle, all rounded edges goes for about $150-175

$100 or so would've been resonable. he has a box building company so it's not like he goes out and buys supplies. he prolly has gallons of glue, and rolls of carpet, and lots of ports. i doubt he buys the supplies for each box

100 shipped????

why do I doubt anyone would do that for any period of time... it would be a waste of time at that price point - quality would have to suffer for the sake of getting it done ASAP.

Now add on $60 for 4 4" ports... which cant be painted a custom color like the TCAB boxes can... and your getting more realistic.

Or $120 for 2 6" ports if you order the "real" aeroports for the box...

Same price range or more now eh? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
