Re: is this a good deal?

Thanks Pete. I had forgotten the FLURO pink crocks. You can't sell those timeless classics. Thanks again - that was just the chuckle I needed to start my day off.

I'd pay a nickel to see a high skirt any day.

If you think its a good deal get them. I see were you are coming from. I have been looking into making my own buzzbaits. I have noticed you have to order from three diffrent places to get the colors you want.

Re: is this a good deal?

At .25 each if this guy is making them himself he is going in the hole big time. If you order your tabs from Charles, you have to buy in quantities of 100 to get the discount price. Then you add on the cost of the skirt collar and you have .25 cents in the materials. My skirts have 66 strands and I charge .50 cents for 10 or more skirts. If I can't make .15 to .25 of profit, it is not worth it to me to make them. So if this guys skirts are of good quality that is a great deal.

FYI. The tabs from Charles have 22 strands not the normal 20. He also has a new silicone tab coming out that is called living image and it is suppose to be very close to living rubber.

Re: is this a good deal?

I agree, the guy is going in the hole on them. Either he bought a ton of them very cheap, or his math skills could use some tuning.
