I'm confused. $500? This is on Costco website for $39. Typo?

Not the same thing. Look at my pics.

I just got mine today. I bought pen tray liners from Gary Lehrer at gopens for $7.00 per liner.

My friend, many of us are familiar with Gerstner products. There are also a number of us who have, within the last couple of weeks (courtesy of mentions right here on FPG) purchased the EXACT SAME BOX you are selling. I have been using mine for the last 4-5 days, which I bought from Costco @ $39.99 (+ tax). The only difference between yours and mine is the pen tray insert you have put in place, and that will change when I (also) get some of the pen tray inserts from gopens.com for $7.00 each. I'm thinking 4-5 will complete my project, including building a second-level tray in the top section.

So I really wonder: how can you expect $400.00 for that case? It literally makes no sense at all, sorry to say.

Not, in fact, in any way comparable. These are cheap version of those lovely tool chests. And they are readily available for very cheap. The only customization I see are (again, cheap) pen trays have been added. Which runs about $20 total (I know, I added them to my version!).
