The price is the price. What's it worth to have something that works well for you for years instead of settling to save a few bucks? I just bought a bunch of boxes on Amazon; no more scrounging around looking for one. Got some labels too, another convenience item worth paying a bit for.
I have some MTM boxes for my hunting guns that are still going after 30 years. The newer ones with the hinge are the cats meow. Never even thought about price. Again I only use 50 count in rifle, but that’s just me. If and when the old one start going south I will have no problem just ordering even at 5 bucks per. Anything that costs 5 bucks and gives 10+ years of service is a bargain.
