Hi Kathy,
This seems expensive to me, as, the places which make Rubber
Stamps, or those of them which still make the preliminary
Zink mould in which
to mould the Rubber, usually have been very reasonable if
one only wants the Zink mould ( which they have to make
every time they make a Rubber Stamp from anyone's camera
ready 'art' or text image anyway...)
The last time I got one, it was about 8.00 I think...(some
years ago...)
If memory serve, they have some descretion as to how 'deep'
the Zink mould may be, which I think leaves off at about an
eigth-of-an-inch deep as the deepest.
Just what is it you are paying $125.00 for...?
And, how 'deep' is deep in your reference?
One may have a true, 'Hardened' Steel 'stamp' made for that
kind of
price, with which one may stamp a logo or a set of letters
into (ideally, non-hardened) Steels and other metals...
I am curious...
