Shocking: Beats By Dre Headphones Cost $14 To Make But Sellsfor $100-$700 by myworldtech: 9:25pm On Mar 19, 2015
shocked If you look at Dre Beats headphones, you would think they cost hundreds of dollars to make ---but it is the other way round. In fact, the cost of producing a pair of Beats by Dre Headphone is not even up to the tip you gave the barman. Dre Beats headphones cost only $14 to make. Yes, you read that right(? should be around N2758). Well that is according to people(experts) in the headphone industry.

You may start raining curses on the company for pricing the headphone sky-high. The cheapest Beats headphone in the market cost around $100 and the most expensive ones go for $700. That goes to show the power of marketing. But, seriously they are ripping us off!

Apple Inc. acquired by Beats Music and Beats Electronics for $2.6 billion, and the company founders---Dre and Lovine---joined the Curpertino, California-based firm. Beats is the number one in the headphone industry, controlling at least 57 percent of the market.

They force anybody buy beats by dre? They make enough profit...u don't expect they'll reduce it just because the price of production is low.

If you're going to spend big on headphones, at least consider Bose, they're the best in the business.
