This is nuts! At $12-20 each I think I'm going to look into getting
some made up here locally. Maybe some nice 3/32" aluminum with holes
to fit dotcom and/or motm. With just plain old satin FLAT BLACK finish.

 Shouldn't cost more than $5 apiece - maybe I'll offer them for $7

 grumble..grumble..;)

OMG! Alright, so the pricing strategy is designed to..uhh..(I'm
trying to remember what my old econ Prof told me..) Oh yeah, it's:

"..designed to encourage the perception of vertical product
differentiation in a given marketplace, such that your product
is seen as being of the highest quality available; and hence
worthy of a price much higher than that of your competition."

 Ok I got it..GOURMET SYNTHESIZERS! ;)

Cheers!

 Hi'ya Mark! Is that an order I hear? :) How many did you want?

 Actually I'm deep in the process of working out some wrinkles
in the design of an affordable <very-expensive-module> right
now..perhaps after the 25th I'll be putting together a group-buy
on some blanks, if there is significant interest.

 The guy here in Los Angeles claims he can get me 1w blanks at 
about $5 if I order 100 or so at a time. So probably it would call
for a sign-up and such; much like Jan is doing for the Wogglebug pc 
boards. Price + s/h <something-formula> = final cost. And I think 
PayPal might be a good option. I'll only do this if it's a real
cost saver.

 Meantime, if YOU find a better price on em, please keep me in mind.

 Cheers!

I was kind of hoping you'd do all the work. <g>

Well, they *are* nice blank panels. ;-)  If you've got to have blank 
panels, that is. And if you like the old R.A.Moog look.

I would guess that the pricing strategy is designed to make it worth 
Eric's time to make and sell them.

The smaller the volume, the higher the unit cost. Wouldn't be nice if 
modules were as cheap like mass-produced consumer electronics?
