Hummm....  so we need to buy something we already have, in order to

Subject: Re: [Aslml] Rising Sun Now On Preorder 

Selling "scaled-down" versions of a HASL isn't likely to happen. It's too 
big of a headache for the office  for too small a return to have them deal 
with multiple versions. We also price and order components with a specific 
number of units in mind. Mixing and matching different quantities of 
components makes that impractical.
