Funny how much people will pay to sooth their minds and fit in.

This best guess page shows an estimate of $4.85 to make a helmet and this bulk purchase program shows a cost as low as $3 per helmet.

I found another page that sells helmets at cost to groups for $3.65 each.

$200 per helmet. And people buy 'em.
