[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 6234800, member: 37579"] Fair enough. I assumed a University not a company that specializes in diploma covers. Sorry. Still, diploma covers are a fairly simple thing. Plastic cover on some card stock and clear plastic inner sleeves. The design hasn't changed in ten years at least, maybe even twenty. If your company handles any imbrossing for specific universities that'd be one fewer step. Opposed to a boxed set that might have multiple printers instead of just one. Someone needs to make and print the actual box. Then there are the booklettes, that are different each time. And there might be inserts that could be unique to that box, such as a set of tokens or punch out cards or a deck of cards. It all needs to come together, be assembled (likely by hand), then shrinkwrapped. I forget if they say nine months until they recieve it or nine months until in stores (either way is a long time). He's specific but the 'cast doesn't want to play for me at this moment so I cannot check. Regardless, boxed sets take longer to make and are more expensive to produce generating less profit, so they're not great for the health of the company. [/QUOTE]
