It's hard to understand until you try running a retail store first hand, just how expensive the overhead is today.

I ran a TV repair shop in the early 70's, so I have a bit of an idea of the expense. Rent, electric bill, heating bill, insurance, the whole nine yards.
I just couldn't see $13.00 for a HV rectifier tube. I bought several other items from them.
