That’s Expensive

Following a request for help on a Travelall-specific FB page, I filled out a general inquiry form on an auto glass supplier’s website for new production of curved rear glass. I got an email back yesterday with the following quote and a note at the end (emphasis mine):

Dear Customers:

1 side then $1,495 + Fr 400 = $1,895 delivered cost lower 48
Both sides $2,595 + Fr 600 = $3,195 delivered cost lower 48
50% deposit and 50% due when it ships – under 12 weeks.

These #’s are based on 20 lefts & 20 rights being made.
If more PO’s come in b/ we make – cost decreases.

This will be last time we look at making these.

This roughly squares with a separate estimate I’d been given last year before I found the Holy Grail in Ohio, minus freight.
