Mr. Virmond also confirmed dimensions of both sprays:
Glass Fibre Spray 9000 112 with approximately 10,000 Glass Fibres:
Total length appr. 35 cm (13.7795 inches)
Diameter of capsule (gray aluminium) appr. 18 mm (0,70866 inches)
Glass Fibre Spray 9000 115 with approximately 14,000 Glass Fibres:
Total length appr. 35 cm (13.7795 inches)
Diameter of capsule (white plastic) appr. 18 mm (0,70866 inches)
I've just sent a follow-up inquiry regarding the "Additional Postage (USA), in the amount of 45,80 Euros":
1. Will shipment to the US be by OCEAN FREIGHT or AIR FREIGHT?
2. Does this amount include INSURANCE coverage?
3. Will DHL DELIVERY be to my home address, or do they only deliver to the US Airport or Seaport?
Jasmin,
Thanks aqain! Your message are very much appreciated. When you visit Mr Virmond, please say hello and thank him on our behalf. The last I knew, DHL does deliver locally in the Denver, Colorado USA area. Have a great weekend.
Jasmin,
This is a terrific question. I would be willing to pay an additional US$20.00 - $30.00 for a larger spray that fits an old Fantasia 4000 model lamp. If Mr. Virmond can produce such a spray, I may delay my order. If he agrees it is possible, I'm wondering what the production time would be / when they might be available for shipment.
Thanks again for all your coordination efforts.

Jasmin, when you meet with mr. Virmond perhaps you could tell him about the demand for these sprays here in the states and if we were to ship him (donate) a Fantasia Sunburst base if he would consider producing the longer hanging fiber bundle spray 18" long. He could easily get an additional 20-30 bucks for the additional length and would be worth it for those in search of the longer spray. It's worth a mention. He obviously has the trimming process down that I could not achieve.
Jasmin... I know you are doing all this work on your own time. In my opinion, you deserve an increase in pay.
I've just received a response from Mr. Virmond regarding Insurance costs. He quoted 500 EUR, (about US$ 562.77). I believe he intended to write 5.00 EUR, (about US$ 5.63.), omitting the decimal point.
He also confirmed Jasmin's message... DHL shipment will be AIR, and, "the parcel will be delivered to your home (three times to your door, after three times to your local post office". (I understand that to mean, after making 3 delivery attempts to my home address, DHL will turn the package over to my local Post Office for handling.)
So hopefully the company will continue being that he is retired. I hope he has people well trained in the trimming process of these sprays. I made a valid attempt and it is very difficult! An art for sure!
Perhaps Mr Virmond may have an opening for you, and you could help assume management. It sounds like he does not have any family or friends interested in taking over his company.
I worked for the same company for over 40 years. I was hired right out of High School. They began operations in Denver about 1912, but have since closed their offices here, and moved their corporate offices to Brussels. Luckily, they had a pension plan.
Wishing you the best of luck
