Probably coming close to breaking even at that price!Cost of quality materials,time and labor these guys put in, make that price a real bargain!

The price is set by O.P.E.C. (Organization of Plugbuilders Enterprise Coop) They meet once a year and in their infinite greed will set whatever price they feel the market will bear. We are at their mercy.
Actually I think when you consider the amount of work involved in a custom plug compared to production plugs that are approaching $16.99 retail, you are truly getting your moneys worth and then some. They should be more like $25- $30.00 each.
Plastic injection molded stuff which I know for a fact costs about .40 cents to produce overseas is the real question esp. when you shell out $14.99+ for one of them fancy yashizukimoto swimmers that don’t swim anywheres NEAR as well as wood. And wood smells great when properly trashed.

I agree on the bomber v. You-Zur-Eye debate... I'm not sold on YoZuri's... had good nights with them, but had a testing point last year... gave my LAST 'bus bomber to my lil bro... he fishes once a year.... I threw Yo's, wood, plastic... I got burned bad that night.... he still talks smack..... in the right condiions Bombers are the nuts.... in big water or at a breach... give me wood or give me death (or smilin bills)

Yours were The 1st in the mail Bernzy. I hope you like them.
I would like to publically thank Bernzy for making this Lip a reality.
He provided us with the original sample some time ago & encouraged me to work on this asap.
Bernzy is a one of a kind Gentleman, a true craftsman, artist, sportsman, and a person that any one of us would be blessed to call a friend.
Thanks again Bernzy
JD

Specs are:
- .032" thick #304 stainless steel, exactly like the original
- 1.425" face width
- 1.045" face height
- 1.775" flat overall length
- wire slot centerline from top of lip is approx .243
Although they are complete, and listed on the site, i am holding off shipping any orders til Bernzy and Capesams get back to me with their feedback.
Thanks guys .
