Rotary steel dies tend to be more expensive than flatbed dies. At times, it could be more expensive than its counterpart. Flatbed dies are usually less costly for specific reasons. One major factor in pricing is a rotary dies' ability to run more pieces (amount, speed, and accuracy of cut). Although a flatbed might be cheaper to purchase, a rotary die might end up being more cost effective in the long run.

Flatbed dies are usually more practical than rotary dies when only producing single or small distribution. If the die is used continually to produce a particular product, a rotary die will end up being more efficient and economical.
