If you think the price of these parts are high. You should see the prices for some industrial/commercial parts.

Long ago, I was involved with making nickel/graphite seals. One 6" diameter, 1/4" wide seal for a compressor sold for $12,000. You needed 6 of that size, and 6 more of that are 14" ($19,000 ea.) in diameter and one for the balance piston ($26,000 ea.) for a rebuild.

When buying parts from GE. We have a saying. "You might find better, but you won't pay more."

In my eyes, the prices for the VooDoo13 parts are in line for the volume that they sell of them.
