Why MIA Fender costs more than CIJ or MIM

I've posted this before but figured that I should post it here also. Here is a list of items found on the MIA basses that aren't on the CIJ or MIM.

MIA Fender Basses have;

Graphite re-enforced necks
Bi-flex 2 way truss rod
Die Cast tuners
Bridge that allows string-thru-body or top load stringing
Better pickups
Better electronics (potentiometers)
Much better fretwork
Better grade of wood for the body and neck
Comes with a hardshell case
Straplocks


This is why the MIA basses cost more than the other Fenders.

Just FYI
