Can you, with some degree of confidence, guarantee that any team could go to a junkyard and find that same part for the same price? Or can they order that part from the place you got it from? If not, then you would need to list the price that it can be commonly found at.
After years of doing this, I still don't get how teams can spend $4k on a robot... Well, I guess I could if we had $4k extra laying around.
