Religious Emblems price increaseReligious emblem, Adult Recognition, and International Awareness Activity award prices as of May 15, 2008. Please note that these are the prices that the diocese pays the vendor, and does not include shipping charges, or diocese handling charges. This is not the final price for the Scout or Scouter. Only authorized (arch)diocesan/eparchy contacts can purchase from the vendor. Individual purchases must be made from the (arch)diocesan/eparchy chaplain or contact.
There are two reasons for the price increases. One reason is due to an increase in worldwide metal prices that the manufacturer (Esco) has asked to pass on to its customers.
The second reason is due to the need to offer authorized purchasers the ability to be billed for their orders. When we moved production and distribution of our emblems to Esco, we negotiated more favorable pricing by agreeing to provide payment at time of order. Esco agreed to a one-year transition period that ended July 1, 2008.
