They've been willing to make some more sets, but continue to have challenges getting enough sold to want to make more. They do such an awesome job on them, I try to get them for games when I can. Very faithful repros, and really make a playfield pop. It takes about ten sets for them to break even and be willing to do it.
Quoted from boilerman:I wish there prices were more in line with repros PBR sells. I do buy them when needed. but if the prices were a bit lower I would replace just ok sets with new ones or trying to hunt down that one broken piece.
I suspect PBR sets were made quite a long time ago, and were cheaper to have made at the time. Some of those sets are truly bargain priced. I figure between the time it would take to either find used ones, or make new ones, the extra cost to get the high quality replacements is justified (and factor it into the game base cost).
But my impression is they'd just be happy to have folks follow through on requested sets. Much like backglasses and playfields from other folks, they make them on getting a commitment for the minimum number.
Quoted from MikeO:He said he still had stock 2 years after they were produced.
Probably the same stock now... 
Ever notice the 'browning' on the peel off paper? That's from age.
