Do the Autoverdi rods sing opera? Is someone in their production path named Giuseppe?
Frankly I am puzzled why you can't get Crower to make a set. They have been advertising for years that they can make any rod. Billet is billet, after all. Did you talk to someone there? Or just enquire whether they had some on the shelf? And likewise with most of the others, they must be pretty busy to not want to make a sale.
