I think you should consider what people are asking you and investigate the costs. Anodising, nor even nickel plating, costs anything like what you're saying. Heck, I could get those things solid gold plated for less than what you're saying it would cost just to get them anodised.

i'm charging enough to cover production costs and shipping costs.
these caps cost me no where near 25 cents a piece to produce..
i'll look deeper into anodizing, most likely black anodization. i'll see what i can do guys.. it's hard as hell manufacturing in CT, where you have to fight for machine time, materials cost, and machine setup and production... and struggle to make enough just to pay the rent and bills
