Restaurants and Hospitals are rip off too. So are most doctors. However, when you are in business and one sells products and services as a business for profit... is it really a ripoff? Businesses have monthly overhead to pay whether business is good or not good. There are telephones and those who answer those phone, and insurance and a multitude of expenses one doesn't consider. Granted, most of these products and services can be done by oneself... if they really want to do it themselves. Why do you think people support restaurants and pay outrageous prices for food that they could easily make at home. What do you think the liability insurance would be from an underwriter on a medical device that *should* empty a leg bag? What if it fails and someone is injured or needs medical attention? It will be interesting to see how many of us will actually take the time and effort to attempt construction and employment of auto legbag that assures its user a more independent lifestyle, or use any reason an excuse that its just not good enough for them. Remember, its only $30 bucks against $500-$800 bucks. W
