Why are these so expensive? Pretty sure these were no more than $60 a few years ago

Each Shure M44-7 DJ Cartridge normally goes for $60-80+, depending on availability. This complete "ready to go" item includes a Shure M44-7 and Technics Headshell, both are assembled by an in-store technician, and packaged to ship.

I'm not sure. I can only think some colors are more popular than others and that's why they are more expensive.

Yeah that's crazy. Are they being sold in sets? When I ordered it years ago it was less than $10

Is there any reasonable explanation why the ones in color cost more than the black one?

These are not available anywhere else I can find - best guess is these are not made anymore and so, if you really liked one and want another then you get to work out the cost-benefit analysis for yourself and respect the reality of how things are priced in our free-market system. And yes, in 2008 it was under $50. Quick Marty, to the DeLorean, there is money to be made!

These can be found for ~$30 on a number of sites, including the manufacturer's site, but some will charge over $10 for shipping. Shop around -- Amazon isn't the most competitive on pricing for these...

I have never seen the $20.00+ set. It's possible they are being sold by a specialty store, so the price is higher. That is why I prefer Amazon; I can often find the same item for a lower price.

No, not $20... I wish. I would buy 10 if they were that cheap. You are looking at about $150.

They are not worth that much. Retail price is $4.99. Unfortunately some Amazon sellers are charging much more.

I think they're so cheap because the white one isn't being carried by Amazon anymore, and Amazon is the one that's charging the $40 price tag. (and these things retail for $100!)

I have had no issues with them and the quality has seemed to be fine to me. Should they be much more expensive?

50 is the regular price... They was on sale from what I heard.. I'll just wait unless they go back on sale or try eBay or another website.. I know I'm not paying no 50 dollars...

I love mine , only had them about 8 months. But I don't remember paying anywhere near the $900 price for them.

Seriously. I've also noticed that a while back too and so my money is mainly being spent elsewhere. These guys are RIPPOFFS. IT'S SUPPOSE TO BE CHEAPER HERE NOT MORE EXPENSIVE!!!

It's been a while and I have forgot. But if it was only 24 for $60.00, that too high. That would make the bulbs about $2.50 each. I know I didn't pay that.

Easy, they're out of stock so one idiot had to charge an outrageous price for them. You should see them in the $5-10 range.
