    Dan,

    I discussed pricing with Pete several times over the years, and more recently with Steve. Pete often sold things at well below market rates. And in my opinion, Pete often sold at below break-even rates, unless he valued his labor rate at close to zero.

      There are are two NCRS memberswho provide key and lock services to the membership. Steve Walker from New Mexico I believe advertises in The Driveline and Jrff Salzman from Michigan. Jeff may advertise in The Driveline also, I just dom't know Both post on this board so their contact information is in the members section. I have dealt with both and found them to be priced reasonably and turn around was within reason although in fairness I was in no rush and told them both that. There may also others who will provide this service, but I know these gentlemen do..

      In addition to the proper font and alignment of thee stamps the proper blanks have to be cut, not ground like ACE or the neighborhood locksmith will do. The C3 judges check for the proper method of cutting the blank.

      I can personally vouch for Steve Walker. He took over Pete Lindahl's key business. Steve is a very knowledgeable and trustworthy guy.
