For those who pick on the "hobby" beekeepers as the source of the low prices,
please consider that most of the "hobby" beekeepers I know of (including
myself) go after the premium market at the premium price.
 
As for myself, I sell pound jars of extracted honey for $3.50, and pounds of
creamed honey for $4.00 - hardly "bargain basement" prices.
 
My thoughts - If you treat your honey like a commodity product, then don't be
surprised if you can only get commodity prices for it.
