I find it interesting that the silvered soft glass coming out on the market is so much more $ than the silvered boros that already exist. I love using them when I do soft glass but admit, I only purchase them when on sale. I just can't justify spending $100 a pound on soft glass when I can get the same colors and more from boro for a lot less.

I am wondering why silver in soft glass is any more expensive than the silver in boro?
Everything is relative to production volumes. The dichroic boro (sheet or rod) is double the price of soft glass.
