WTF?!? $1000 For A UPC Code?

[DEVELISH]

Does anyone know of a cheaper method of getting a UPC code, i just did the preliminary research on the GS1US website and they want $1000 for a single product UPC :eek:

There has to be a cheaper way of getting a barcode for a single product than this.

FAIK is the first part of the barcode the producer of the good... maybe there is some wholesale company which sells the "extension" of the barcode
