Sounds like a licensing bitch when you read the article.

While I'm no fan of using chinese knock off parts in safety equipment. If HANS is charging $42 for a $8.90 clip, I could see why. Bill Simpson is the kind of guy that would buy them from the same place HANS was. Cut the middle man out. Pretty straight shooter dude. I wonder how much SFI charges for those patches?

IE if everyone is getting their stuff made in china already but was selling the licensing cert.

Cut the middle man out.

Of course he was trying to cut out the middle man. If you don't have to pay SFI (stupid money I am sure) to get the patches, there is money to be had. Everyone knows that, but if you want to sell SFI stuff that is what you have to do. It's a mandatory fee to sell SFI certified products. It's why gear that is just as good without the SFI cert is always much cheaper.
