Possible Pricing error?

Just wanted to alert the admins of a possible pricing error on the site. Looks like the mini pushbutton switches from Omron here are selling for 20 cents. Is this the right price?

Do you think the price is too high or too low?

Last time I bought switches like this in some volume (100 or so) I think they cost about $.20 each. To me the price seems reasonable.

I thought it seemed a little low (though I'm not complaining). Thought maybe someone misplaced a decimal...

In fact I just checked the current DigiKey catalog and the Omron tact switches are about 20-30 cents each, single piece qty., so I'm betting the price is correct.
