Hmm, so you do movie work Frank? I have a mate who does movies too, he wants
to build a massive array of about 2000 LEDs for lighting a scene at night,
he wasn't happy when he found the price, especially since I told him he
could get them for 5 cents each.

There's a story behind my price quote:
He came to me one day and told me he wanted to build a large array of LEDs,
I thought he wanted to make a large LED text display, so I quoted the price
for regular 5mm red LEDs at bulk, which is about 5 cents each. He then comes
to me later and tells me later very annoyed after finding a price book and
telling me that he found the price at $1.60 each, I took a look at the price
he was looking at and realised that he was looking at ultra bright LEDs. I
told him that he should use regular red LEDs, he then told me that they
weren't bright enough and he needed white. I then thought to actually ask
him what he wanted them for and he told me that he wanted them for lighting.
The moral of the story is that you should never assume things.

-Gregory.
