90s Skateboard Trucks

A few observations about these trucks from 1997. One, even though it’s 25 years ago now, $17 seems really cheap for a set of skateboard trucks. I feel like they should have cost more back then. Now they seem to range from $40 to $90. The $40 sounds reasonable and $90 sounds crazy but I guess those are made from titanium. Two, it’s funny how they’re all the same price basically from $17 to $19. I guess that was CCS’s business model to keep things simple but it just looks funny today.
