Hi Bill and all, I just learned that the price for those tubes drops by 3/4 when the batch size comes to a good 9 metres. The actual production length is 1335 mm which is good for five HR sets of 265 mm each. (This should be long enough for the inner tube, intermediate and outer tubes are shorter anyway) One set of 3 concentric tubes would then be around 20 �, I fear that shipping costs are likely to be higher, at least to NZ... Does anybody have an idea for a practical way for payments in case I would order the larger quantity (and then supply a world market for the first time)? I do not run a business. What about Paypal? Any experiences? Wolfgang Am Montag, 25.
