Mold costs vary greatly. I own an injection mold, cost me near $17,000 to have made in California. But it's much more complicated than a mold for that would be.

This company could probably do it for about $5,000, based on what I know about the costs my competitors made paid for mold similar to mine.

Here's mine.
