How many others think Starbucks is overpriced?

As a Home roaster I am paying around $5.00 a POUND for my green Coffee Beans. That is less money than MOST of Starbucks drink prices.

A simple yes or No answer will be O.K. But if you would like to expound upon your reason for agreeing I am O.K. with that also.

I am pretty sure that it doesn't cost Starbucks (Also known as *$'s or Charbucks) anywhere near what I pay for my green beans because they go straight to the farms in some cases, in which case they only pay $0.75 to a dollar a pound to the poor farmer. Thoughts on that???
