Update: Graphene oxide is pricey: cheaptubes.com
I agree that both points were very interesting.

As to the Graphene Oxide cost, as Herbvic says, costs will come down and there are already lots of smart people working on the problem as it is exciting to a lot of scientists in many different areas.

Simple, cheap way to mass-produce graphene nanosheets

The interesting thing is that I cannot find a single negative article on Graphene. The only thing right now is figuring out how to produce this stuff at a reasonable cost and when you consider that you have a endless supply of starting material and lots of money and brain power going into this very issue, it is hard to believe that breakthroughs are not just around the corner.
