Agreed - ESPECIALLY an ID card that is nice thick plastic like a credit
card.

NOT AGREED. They would have no incentive to do this if there were no
profit.
A small profit is understandable, and if they sold direct to us, even with
profit
added in, we would save tons of money, as the 100%+ markup of running
through the
distribution channel would never happen.

Agreed, but in different colors (wouldn't you LOVE to see many of the
Classic
Space released in BT1 colors?). Not as practical as we might think, many
of the
older molds would have to be reproduced.
