A current/modern patch can be embroidered in bulk tomorrow and a plastic badge can these days be printed in someone's back yard. That is why anyone who spends serious money on these types of items will eventually lose their shirt because the first time a piece of one of only "20" QMI plastic sells at public auction for $300 they will appear all over the market in short order! You only have to look at what the European's have started to do to earlier badges, if a plastic badge was worth big money they would be all over Ebay tomorrow. Again just my personal view.

How many plastic badges have you seen churned out by 3D printers to date?
I've not seen any badge for that matter manufactured by a 3D printer.
