Very interesting, and the medical set is definitely a good
buy. Roughly one dollar per piece.
I suspect the constant pricing just saves labor in the accounting departments
at both ends. Remembering when I worked in academia... I would have appreciated
those constant prices when writing up a grant proposal. It would avoid questions
from the university's bean-counters, like "Why does this set cost so much
more than the other set? Aren't they the same kind of thing?"
