[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 102384, member: 597"] With regards to the small volume parts especially for the series "A" machines, the cost is too high, you are lucky to recoup your costs. There are very few parts I need for this one i am rebuilding now, but to make batches of parts and sell on to others is simply not worth it. It might sound a bit negative, and i would agree, but i know from first hand experience. You need to have deep pockets to get large numbers made and then you might have them sat on the shelf for years.......... I know folk here who know all about that. The postage from here to the UK is expensive and then the Voc spares would have to pay VAT on the parts.........This is a major contributing factor............Sorry but there it is. [/QUOTE]
