I have been notified by Advanced Optics Ltd. - these are the folks that manufacture the Collins reproductions items - that they now have a firm price on the diamond emblems that mount on the National speakers, etc. For your information, the emblem that we used for the template came off the light gray National speaker.
Price will be $35 each or multiple pieces at $30 each, with shipping included. The deciding factor as to whether this project becomes a reality is that we can sell a minimum of 20 pieces to break even. Our profit margin is rather low and we want to keep it that way. Therefore, I need to know who out there wants to order this emblem. I have had inquiries before so I will go back through my email to contact you if you did respond to my earlier post. It would be nice if someone would take 20 pieces so we could move forward with this project. Remember, we hope that you would honor your commitment if you indicate that you want to order these emblems when they are available, which should be early spring. An update will follow. If you have questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. The Collins Radio Association is the exclusive distributor for Advanced Optics Ltd. in the United States and Canada. Thank you.
