Default Where can I find non-silver bezel cups??

I am having the hardest time trying to find bezel cups that are NOT sterling silver!! Do any of you know any metal findings people that I could ask to make some? I have used Sunwest Silver's awesome bezel cups for years, but now that I'm out of them and silver is so high....well, they are now out of my reach. I can still make my shaker earrings with copper, brass or even silver plate, but I cannot find them in 8mm, 12mm and 15mm sizes. I am at such a loss that I subscribed to this site for the first time since it became a pay-for site. HELP!!!

Thanks!

Holly
