What moves the price
For 98mm cone, the drivers are tube length, cap style, material, child-resistant certification, print method — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
For 98mm cones, the biggest price drivers are paper type/finish, filter tip style, whether the cone is custom printed, and whether child-resistant or special packaging is required. Realistic sourcing routes are U.S. wholesale resellers for sub-10k buys and factory-direct/custom packaging suppliers for 25k+; the lowest published pricing in the results is factory-direct custom-cone pricing at 100K+ units, while case-pack wholesale listings sit higher and are better proxies for smaller tiers
