Stew mac seems really expensive/overpriced in general. There are many tools and consumables they have that are just rebrands of something else marked up 500-1000%.
Prices are steep but they are kits. That's how that shit works. If they just sold PCB's, no one would make any money (or barely). EQD is in on this with them, so I get it.
I think it's rad as hell to let folks learn how to build a literal pedal from them. Like Dwarfcraft did.

Also... if it's a pedal that EQD doesn't make anymore, and people out there want the pedal, then the kit is for them.
Don't want to build a pedal? Try to find one used.
