Default Rob building prices who charges what?

Thinking about importing a few rod blanks of various lengths. I've built a few rods in my time, but do not have the time nor the inclination to do so now.
Can you guys let me know what your charging, blank supplied by me?
Flour grade cork handle, and workhorse everything else.
Cheers
Paul

Steve, you know you've constructed at least 7 "Mac Specials" rods for me in the last 15 years or so.Some on Newport, others on blanks I've had direct from Steve Harrison.
Are you still building rods?
Or has the Dark Side completely taken you over.

Sounds like a bargain to me, £30ish for fittings & cork and £70 to do 20 odd wraps ream the cork and epoxy everything up. Time it takes me I'd have to charge three times that...

Cotswold rods charged me £80 when I supplied them with a z axis blank I wanted built, this was last year though.

The service and work were exceptional
