How many of you who can't get past the $400 stand price were fine with Abyss pads costing that much?

Sorry... I thought that might have been interpreted incorrectly. I dislike the price of the stand and the pads.Why? That's not a valid point?
I'm not trolling; the price on those pads was outrageous.
It's a shame that not not more people realise what rip-off the prices of some headphones are.Why? That's not a valid point?

That's the real difference between companies philosophy and how they treat there customers after sale ,How many of you who can't get past the $400 stand price were fine with Abyss pads costing that much?
Anybody can look up the KH Ultimate One. They totally resemble the ZMF Verite.That's the real difference between companies philosophy and how they treat there customers after sale ,
For example the Raal Requisite SR-1A both drivers cost 350$ and here just the foam pads cost 400$
I kept mine on the justmobile stand for quite a while (a year?) and you get a couple of crease marks in the leather because the bit they sit on is flat, so I switched to the Woo one and it slowly went away.Just wondering if anyone who has placed their Abyss on a stand the 'normal' way (i.e. resting on the headband) experienced O rings getting stretched out or breaking as a direct cause? Like, you felt that storing them this way had a direct impact on this?

I'm not in the business of selling headphones but even I know that making items in-house and paying fair wages here in the US is vastly different from buying labor-cheap overseas products that take advantage of current US tariffs, ie Chinese products.Anybody can look up the KH Ultimate One.

If a company is able to sell a headphone for $289 with great looking woodwork, leather headband, etc, the cost of material in order to build such a headphone will be less than $100.
And they also have to pay for R&D.
That's why I personally believe that some companies charge obscene prices. And that is probably the reason, why it is not uncommon to buy a brand new hp with a 30% discount, because even the dealers feel that customers are being overcharged.
That's why people were able to offer a 2 months old Susvara for €3100 here recently in the forum sale section. I cannot imagine that a seller is willing to give such a discount for an almost brand new Susvara, if he paid the full list price.
