Why do trailer brake shoes cost so much?
Another post that talked about his oddly cracked brake shoes got me thinking about maybe changing mine out this spring. After doing some checking I've discovered how expensive those darned things are!...

28 per wheel is not that bad but the answer to why things cost so much is GREED. Corporate GREED.. Company after company is crying how they are need to raise prices while reporting record profits. Oil companies. Fast food. Slow food. Amazon (and their competitors) nearly everyone.
Odd how if they are overpriced due to GREED, no one steps in and undercuts them taking away their business...hmmm.
I'm sure you are going to look into staring a brake pad business and make a mint selling them at $8 each because you aren't GREEDY?
