    Also, on cosmetically sensitive parts like this, surface finish is a BIG contributor to the cost.

    How many? Are these molds, or finished pieces?

    Your questions are so open, it does not encourage answers. It encourages a barrage of questions. Anyone capable and interested in your parts will need a LOT more information. Starting with any budgetary guidelines.

    I see what you mean, thanks for being honest. Ideally, I'd like to make 10 different unique boxes over the course of 2-3 months, and anywhere from 25-50 of each at around $150 - $200 per box - finish ready. Boxes would range from (4.5 x 4.5 x 2 in) - (6.5 x 6.5 x 2.5 in) I don't know if that's realistic for the amount of work that would be needed, so please correct me if I'm wrong.

    Edit: Also, if if wasn't clear, they will be finished pieces, not molded.

    How big are those?
