Why are these clips so expensive? At $39.99 it's like someone mashed an extra 9 when putting in the price, the face gasket which is much larger, uses more material and is more robust costs less than half, even the power adapters are $5 cheaper.

Seems that the price has been corrected to $4.99

Yeah. The price is seriously insane! Two smaller zipties fit through that opening just fine and cost me pennies and work better than that cheap plastic clip.

Maybe i might have a older verison of the index because the larger clip piece on the top doesnt even clip in
