Just spoke with Vince.

The Collector price is still $180 because they have to make to order anyway, so no discount on them even though the design part is already taken care of.

The U-Bend, for whatever reason, is now $88.06 (quoted over phone).

So, looks like $268.06 plus shipping, and tax if you are in CA.

I may or may not go this route - still need to get some local quotes and see what I can come up with.
