Have I over priced my Mut?
I welcome any input on the correct value
I hate to see a good tool just not being used

Tryin to be helpful since you asked, although I don't know what they go for overseas

 If 110 pounds = $167  ....   you can get a brand new one on Amazon for $120 and less used on E-bay

I agree, the huge mark up on leathermans here in the UK makes them far too expensive when you consider the competition.

The MP600 are usually half the price of leathermans and the Vic Spirit/Swisstool can normally be had for the price of a Wave.

It's about time leatherman got wise and priced their products to compete with the competition.

I think I've only purchased may be 3 new leathermans here in the UK. The rest has come from either MT'o members or online auction sites.

LM's UK pricing is simply a rip off!!

I don't claim to know it all, but what I do know is right.

I thought the US paid tax too?
Regardless
Those margins you listed almost double the price of the initial product. Is it not more a case of price fixing?? Like Dyson or snickers workwear??

It would be interesting to compare living costs, tax, insurance etc etc between the UK and USA
I bet there isn't much in it - the UK consumer is renowned for being ripped off.
