Huh, really? $100 for a bucket of 50 with lanyards does come out more expensive, then, assuming people have some spare yarn/cord/old lanyards around. I assumed there was no way bulk production wasn't more expensive, but maybe the supply chain / middle men catch up.
Those are expensive… just a quick search on aliexpress and I found 50 whistles for 5€ including lanyards.
/edit: free shipping if you go over 10€, so 100 whistles.
Not only is that still more expensive than printing, you have to wait a week to ship instead of waking up to a print bed full of them
You are right. You can beat the prices on alibaba though. Then you could even get metal ones for 11 cents a piece.
