How about $525 for a glorified hockey mouth guard - went to the dentist and he told me I was grinding my molars and causing some issues. He cemented up the teeth, filled, etc. and then told me a mouthguard was necessary. I figured with the general markup it would be about $100, but no prices were discussed (mistake on my part). Takes a quick impression and off I go. I go back 2 weeks later - he tells me here it is - I say how much - he says $525 - I say no way don't want it - he tells me that I have to take it as it was a mold of my mouth. I am PO'd but like a chump I paid. Wife went to Wal Mart and picked one up that was similar for $15.
