Bill Mitchell Products Introduces New Big-Block Aluminum Castings

Well, "negotiating" via "make an offer" from $11,791 down to $5,800 is some SERIOUS negotiating if anyone has managed that! Boy, I'd be pretty pissed off if I was one of their customers that paid $9k via "make offer" and then saw they were selling the same product for $6k...
Besides, the one question I've asked BMP was handled by transferring me to...Bill Mitchell himself!
That reminds me, I haven't asked Bill about or if they're involved with these blocks and how. It sure seems like these are the same aluminum blocks, but like I said, NUMEROUS articles have stated they are redesigned and that happened in 2019.

Thew 440 blocks I see on ebay are around 5000 or so , or best offer , ''dont remember'' , as I cant afford one anyway -------???
Feel the same way about making an offer tho !
