Talked to my friend from China (who has no interest in militaria!) to get some proper search terms in Mandarin. Started browsing sites. He will help me make contact should I find good leads.
I'll note that a screw back of a national flag 3rd class went for over $90 delivered on ebay this week and a horizontal pin of the same went for about $30. These prices are significantly above our discussion.
some of the 3rd class can be had in volume for under $6 delivered, so clearly if one were to find a independent supplier they could be had for probably much less.......
Still no luck on a contact but I'll report back after some coordination with my friend...
Will try to put some ''lines in the water'' this week.
