Weren't they discontinued?

They probably aren't mass producing them anymore, so you are paying for the pipe to be redone after the order and usually that's more expensive for them to go back to an existing die and use it for a one-off.

Yeah he did find Curt on ebay, I remember that. I know Hogan stopped production as of 10/2/12 due to health reasons. There was some insight into possibly starting back up in the future but no exact time was given. He may still be manufacturing and selling, through ebay, one at a time which would indicate the higher cost.

^^This.

Who knows if and when they will start production again. Sounds like it is possible but not guaranteed.
