Hi Terry:) I understand your skepticism, after all, we have been accepting high prices for large tubes for so long, honestly we have grown used to it. Dalibor does an extremely great job as a "boutique" nixie tube builder; think of his method as the Rolls Royce approach, hand-built, limited quantity. After accounting for the raw materials and some investigating on existing factories that could handle its unique manufacturing process, it is possible that it can be produced at said price. With a lot of hard work and dedication put into the mix of course!:)
