What moves the price
For beaker, the drivers are length, width, thickness, pressure rating, temperature rating, glass type, edge finish, diameter — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
For a mid-range 100 mL borosilicate lab beaker, the biggest price drivers are glass spec (standard vs borosilicate 3.3), form (low vs tall), wall thickness, graduation printing, and whether the item is custom-packed or sterilized; sterility is usually irrelevant for plain glassware and would add cost only for medical-packaged variants. Realistic supplier routes are China factory/marketplace listings for FOB wholesale pricing and US-facing distributors for small-case retail-equivalent pricing; the lowest quotes are typically plain, unbranded, non-sterile stock beakers, while custom printing and tighter tolerances push prices up
