Seriously, if the demand is there and your costs go up, pass it along. I know you run the risk of doing a batch and THEN finding out people won't pay your higher price, but that's something every manufacturer takes into account.

Really Glenn, if the demand is there and the only way you can make it work is charge FIFTY a piece, then consider it. You're dealing with a group of skaters who think nothing of buying $250 decks, $225 truck and $80 bearings. Why not a precision machine-crafted accessory for more than $20?

I'm just sayin' . . . .

Of course, I also understand if things have changed and you just don't have the time to stand over a stamp or drill and do the deed.
