wont be having cheap stick on logo's made for these, will be going for good quality metal ones. think the cheap stick on printed ones let the look of the old keys down personally.

Cool, can we just buy the 'metal' logo's then?

yeah sure, but will probably be the majority of the cost of the key as a whole as getting metal badges isn't cheap

I dunno Rick, a flip case is £3.49 so you reckon a metal logo (which is still stick on) could cost around £17

haven't found this £3.49 one you're referring to, cheapest I've seen is £7. and what about postage and packaging and my time?

from china? will take 2 weeks to arrive and if it's no good or doesn't work then that's money wasted. A lot of things on ebay are cheaper to order from china if you're happy to wait

the keys sold here in UK are a higher price and come with quicker delivery.

Plus if this does work out and I have a batch made, if one happened to be faulty you'd just get in touch with me and I'd send another one

like I said, the estimate price is just a guess at the moment, very early stages at the moment. the last set with sticker badges on here a few years ago were £16, no one complained then?

£4 extra for metal badges can't be breaking the bank can it?

No ones forcing anyone to buy, if you're not interested that's fine

also another question chaps, what's your thoughts on having a chrome plated flip key?

Heddy · 16th October 2016, 21:37

Not a complaint dude, I'm sure in this world you get what you pay for. I think the last batch dried up possibly because the members bought U.K ones off the bay for around a tenner. Not sure about chrome, the majority of flips are black.
