Get the 500. Price them to make a small profit/break even/ small loss on say 300. Then the 200 are pure gravy.

Yeah sounds good. I'm just getting a quote from dice.co.uk too for as close as possible to that red velvet dice for a like-for-like comparison, I'm guessing the per dice cost will be higher but shipping cost and time lower.

Chessex Quote
Shipping for 400 or 500 dice would be the same $69.00 USD (£52.46 GBP) price quoted
previously.
At a quantity of 400, the dice would be $.50 USD (£0.38 GBP) each making the total
$269.00 USD (£204.51 GBP) with shipping. That works out to about £0.51 per dice at 400.
At a quantity of 500, the dice would be $.42 USD (£0.32 GBP) each making the total
$279.00 USD (£212.12 GBP) with shipping. That works out to about £0.42 per dice at 500.
Dice.co.uk Quote
The price for 500 x 16mm dice with one custom face is 30p each for printed or 50p each for laser engraved. Shipping cost would be £9.22 by DHL express. Prices exclude VAT.
That's £159.22 for printed or £259.22 for laser engraved (Same as Chessex). Plus VAT. That works out to about £0.38 per printed dice or £0.62 per laser engraved dice.
I'n inclined to recommend the Chessex proposal, it does mean waiting 8-10 weeks for delivery and a good chance of an import tax bill too, likely to be £35-45 at most.
