Hi all. Currently the new owner of a (used) Caiman SEG. I've been ploughing through all of the posts to check out upgrades and mods. Is Stan ever going to produce more Dorado's, or is it the end of an era?

Wondering exact same thing myself Ian.
I put off getting one for ages, then when I went to purchase, the cupboard was bare!
Typical . . . (from me).

Best email me so that I know who exactly is after a Dorado. I have a few left.
The problem I have is that when I set the price of the Dorado, which was slightly above cost, I didn't count on the £ losing so much of its value. So my manufacturing costs have gone up. But even at the low price of £60 plus postage etc I was still getting people complain that it is expensive.

Hi Stan, I would buy the Dorado, (I want a few of them), for the necessary price. If it must be a litle more expensive, so be it, allow me to say it.
I don't expect miracles, one must accept the reality. It will be more expensive, but not expensive...
For those who say Dorado is expensive : we can not expect to have omelette without eggs. If I can buy, I can buy, if I can't buy, I can't buy! There are so many things I can't buy, but not necessarilly because they are expensive! Uff...! No offence... Thank you!
