>I would not order these overlays. They appear quite expensive

Hmm, the price seems reasonable to me.  Printing onto plastic from what I understand is quite expensive to begin with.  When you factor in that this is a limited appealing, 'boutique'-type product, the price seems reasonable.  (to me at least, IMHO)

>and I do not like their design (Why are the white labels so small?).

Hmm, the label size seems fine to me as well.  In the upper section they are 1:1 with what's already on the BCR200, and in the lower section, the labels are bigger than what's printed on the BCR2000.

My only complaints are:
1) They arrived a bit warped and don't fit properly.
2) I wish it was a single sheet of plastic, stair stepped (zig-zagged), instead of two separate pieces (but that's a minor issue).

Oh, that's a great idea!  I hadn't thought of that...  what kind of material did you get it printed on?  I'm thinking plastic or thick/heavy cardboard stock would work.  I have a BCF2000 and was wishing there was a product like the BCR overlays for the BCF, maybe I'll go that route and print one for my BCF.
