Why is e92 blackout grill so expensive?

I was just looking around on ebay and E92 black grill is about the double of E90 grills, even though the e90 is 4 pieces.

Is this basically a supply vs demand problems since only few people produce them currently. Is this similar to when e90 was only 1 year old?

thanks

yeap... the price of the e90 black out grill has dropped significantly... was much more expensive when less vendors had it.

What is expensive for you?

It is because it is so new, and the prices for production vs the amount sold hasn't evened out yet.

Same for about almost everything.

Supply vs. Demand.
