"boxed and overpriced"

$8.69 for a lb of Deckmate at HD. Ridiculous!

There are a lot of "weekend warrior" types out there to whom "DIY" is a
successful marketing strategy. The limited experience and short time they
actually work on things leads them towards more confidence when they pay
that much for a pound of screws.

To those types, the high price is actually a selling point, and the
manufacturers know this.
