Too true, I'm afraid

After a few weeks and having sent off my new original part for sampling, one of the companies has reverted to me with pricing.

Material:
Black natural rubber 70 shore.

Good news:
If 50 parts were ordered, the cost would be £7.50 per item.
If 100 parts were ordered, the cost would be £4.45 per item.

Bad news:
The moulding costs £4,350 !!
So, if we were to get 50 definitive/paid orders, the cost would be £94.50 + P&P for each rubber pedal cover...

Form an orderly queue, please


Cheers,
Karl.
