This is from the Costa Ludis site. I have not priced individual kit items to see if it would be cheaper to make a kit like this on my own.
Thoughts please…GO!

You can build the kit cheaper. MUCH cheaper.
Does it come with a Jessica Alba poster?
It also comes with a pair of 7.5” trauma shears with black oxide blades and coyote tan handles.
That has to be a $50 option right there…:neo:
The kit has a good packing list and will be useful.
As for the price… There are ways to do it much more cost efficiently. However, it’s multicam, it’s associated with Costa, and it has “trauma shears with black oxide blades and coyote tan handles.” It will sell.
I’d like to see more of the pouch. It looks very size efficient for the role.
I’d be interested in purchasing one of the pouches by itself from Eggroll. I wonder if the licensing agreement will allow it?
The pouch is nice, but not $75 nice…I thought I recognized EGL.
I’m guessing their source for the shears is countycomm, and they are much better than the standard option they carry, but I don’t know how much that’s saying.
I agree because its assosicated with Mr Costa the price has been marked up, also the only way to get the pouch right now is by buying the whole kit 
The pouch is nice from the looks of it, a similar kit can be bought for cheaper but if u want the nice pouch it is what it is 
The HSGI bleeder pouch looks to be just as functional.
I do have one of those. It is about the same size, but I have to “daisy chain” the supplies together in order to deploy them quickly, and not send gear flying all over creation.
It is well made, and I like it.
Looks like a good kit. However seems like you are paying for convenience. Reminds me of the NAR kits. Those are expensive!
You have to pay the EGL premium prices, no matter how simple or easy the pouch.
Looks like the pouch is $30 on EGL’s Facebook page. He makes another one with a double pistol front for $45.
BINGO!
Also there is no markup because of Costa’s involvement. This is the SAME price Kerry @ Dark Angel charges. Chris is just helping Kerry to push these kits. And I’ve yet to find a kit nearly as low profile as this.
It boggles my mind when people scoff over the cost of a med kit (which more often than not people lack training on anyways) but have NO qualms about putting the latest whiz bang bullshit doodad on their gun.
Anyways, I couldn’t be happier with mine, and it allows me to throw away a lot of previous IFAKs that were the size of lunch boxes:
The kit caught my eye, (which is why I wanted all of you to look at it). I think I am going to keep looking for now. Is it me or does this kit look to be about the size of a double AR mag pouch? Would a “tray” (I can’t remember who makes them without an exhaustive search) type system work better for sticking with the double AR pouch size be good?? For some reason the pics I have seen can’t give me a good sizing perspective between the kit and and the mentioned pouch. FWIW, I already have an Endom double AR mag pouch that doesn’t have a home anywhere yet.
Thanks for the replies everyone.
You do know as an alternative to the pouch you could buy the DARK medical kit without the pouch by buying the refill kit.
I have this tray, it will fit in a double, but works great in a triple. Not sure if it was the tray kit you were thinking of.
Generally I agree, but people should scoff over a 1000% mark-up. I say this specifically about the items, not the pouch, but assuming you pay $50 for the items, you are still looking at a over $100 for a MEDICAL pouch.
Edited to add, it is capitalism at its finest, and I ain’t gonna bust a brother’s balls if he can get away making extra scratch if he can.
If they can make money, good for them. The kit contents are GTG.
EGL pouches are known-good. Folks should have a FAK/BOK of some flavor. Whatever the motivation of the buyer or the effect of marketing, if it puts more kits in peoples hands, that’s a good outcome.
Yep, thats the one. Their website says the tray will fit into a double mag pouch. The Dark Angel kit looks about as wide as 2 AR mags. I like the tray idea but for now I will keep looking. BTW, who makes a triple AR pouch??
