The holder accessories are as/more expensive as the tracker itself lol

> Apple-designed AirTag accessories include the Leather Key Ring in Saddle Brown, (PRODUCT)RED, and Baltic Blue for $35 (US); the Leather Loop in Saddle Brown and (PRODUCT)RED for $39 (US); and the Polyurethane Loop in White, Deep Navy, Sunflower, and Electric Orange for $29 (US).

My side business is making handmade/handstitched leather belts, wallets etc.

These keyfob holders look like the sort of thing I'd make and sell... probably for the same £ cost as the Apple branded, mass-produced alternatives.

Thank you for chiming in with your experience. I, like many others, assumed these accessories were being sold with an exorbitant markup but it seems like they may be pretty reasonably priced.

I'm not sure that's what polyvisual meant. If they handmake an item and it sells for the same price as a mass-produced item, the mass-produced item is definitely marked up.

I imagine the Hermès holder is going to be much more than that.
