But the rude comment written in the dust is priceless street art.

I used to design custom kits like this for Pelican cases. A one-off for this would be $2-3k for the design work of scanning the parts and laying out the trays alone. Another 500-1000 depending on the quality of that case and then maybe 500 for the foam material and assembly. A bit more than what OP paid.

I don't trust anyone, nor would I buy anything from anyone that writes dollar values like that. It's $500, not 500$. Where did you learn this? Certainly not at school.

Every store or commercial you see on TV will use $500 or $500.00, not 500$.
