I do wish you well with the enterprise Aiden but it sounded to me as if your
first buyers were going to carry the venture and risk aspects.
I have knowledge of Chinese manufacturing both back when trouble-shooting and
very recently when doing the same for a mate who imports LED lighting.
You better be prepared to pop over there a few times.
Take my comments in the context of a [very] sceptical potential customer; I'll
probably shush now :-)

Hi John, you're right about how people shouldn't commit to buying a product
that hasn't stood real life testing in the first place.
I believe it promotes a culture where new manufacturers think it's fine to
push out a product before its ready.
I'm sorry if I sound unsubstantial; I had once contacted stem base suppliers
in china, and they do say that they have the product line ISO 9001 certified,
but I have a hunch that they subcontract the orders to another workshop. The US
manufacturers carry the parts needed, and they're more reputable too.
High-quality parts would equate to less of a headache.

Hmm, are you talking QA or QC?
By 'product engineer' you make it sound as if you think you can treat the
process like a 'recipe'. You are relying on experts in the various fields
required rather than having any direct knowledge yourself? High quality
components can make a high quality dud too by the way.
From the lack of substance in your 'blurb' you give ME the impression that
you are a marketer by outlook.
Regardless - people should not even consider buying until the results of
life testing is known.

I'm a product engineer taking on a new project.
With current manufacturing methods, I'm able to manufacture In-18/Z568M
inspired nixie tubes, at a fraction of their market costs (sub 25 USD/pc). I
don't compromise on quality. hence, it will be built with parts mostly sourced
from the US, and have the quality management system ISO-certified.
However, due to overhead costs, such a price is only available if the
minimum demand for said tubes is reached. Hence I can only commence with the
project when I know that there is enough interest.
What are your thoughts? Would it interest you if such tubes exist? show
your support, and large, affordable nixie tubes may finally be within our grasp!
