Mattresses have one of the highest markups of any product. They only need to sell a couple of mattresses a month to break even.

Mark up on the mattress alone? Ie one of those "it only cost $X to make, but the sell it for 8 times. What a rip off."

Cause im think shipping is high on them. Now the new packaging rolls is a reason why it can be cheaper.
