$7.5k is full list. Actual retail is much less. We are a manufacture/wholesaler only, but have them listed in the shopping cart for full list so as not to step on our dealers....and for the individual who insists to buy factory direct.
You can typically find a 41" combo (chest and cabinet) that I have on my website for $1900 for less than $1000 in stores.
The $500-$750 stainless toolboxes you see in Costco, Sam's Club, and other big box stores mentioned here are a completely different quality than what I sell. How do I know this? It just so happens that a good friend & business colleague of mine supplies these toolboxes to the accounts mentioned. He sells these stores specifically what they want, and typically they are very price point conscious and willing to scrap alot of quality to meet their target price. Whenever you see a stainless steel toolbox for less than a steel toolbox in any type of store, take a good look at what you are getting. Typically the drawers will be pop riveted together instead of welded, drawer slides are light ga. steel, and the entire box is constructed of light ga. material. Higher end toolboxes will be heavier ga. material with welded drawers and heaver slides. Probably nothing wrong with the lighter toolboxes in a home owner's garage for the money you can buy one for, but for comparison it is like comparing a Ercoupe to a RV....it just doesn't make sense.
