We were referred by a shop in california to
Sheen Badge Company in Taiwan.
Has anyone had any experience with them, they don't have a web page, I have never used a foreign vendor, just nervous about it.
Any specific precautions I should take??
They are much cheaper than what we can find in the US, by about 1/2.

Joyce,
They will likely be cheaper, but don't forget to factor in the duty, shipping and freight forwarding costs.

On an order this size you likely don't need to deal with a freight forwarding company.
Ask the supplier what the shipping charges cover. If it doesn't cover duty, you will need to do some research on what you are liable for. In the modest small order importing I have done I have found that DHL and FedEx are best to deal with. Here are some links that may help answer current and future questions.
