Source for precision level vials for AH use

I have found a source for precision level vials for AH use. The vials can be purchased separately and they are accurate to 10 seconds, pre-filled permanently and have permanent scale lines already applied. I was quoted a price of $50.00 plus $20.00 for shipping which makes them cheaper to buy than to make yourself after factoring in the time it takes. A degree of personal satisfaction is lost however. The company information is below:
Level Developments Limited

Their web site is also interesting but you will have to make e-mail contact for this type of transaction because they are focused on commercial rather than individual orders. They are located in the UK and all communication I have had with them has been cordial. They also have a .pdf that describes the process of adjusting a precision level vial. The price I mentioned is only for the glass vial itself and you would have to make a spring clip or other means to keep it from rolling or hold a pair of them against the mirror surface.
