That is what I discovered as well. I talked to the guy. In reality just the plastic part should not be costing any more than $3 to $4 tops. The key is to find out who else is using them in production for their product (if anyone). Really guys I think everyone here can afford the handles for the $15. That is not the problem here. To me it is more of the game to search for the mystery of the plastic handle. Yep I am retired and have lots of time on my hands. It is truly amazing what you can find out with enough diligence..

Common sense would tell you that those handles are not being made for just for Brettuns Village luggage to sell just a few. Like it has been said here the production cost would eat them up for making just a small batch of them. Someone else is using them....
