I have already answered your, "Honestly, I think it was a question of cost" in my last post by stating it cost a lot more to make a special mold for the show sample than it did to reproduce a sample from an existing mold of a functional product.

I have put on many an open house and have experience in knowing what works and what doesn't.

Word of mouth works, no matter what the source.
Potential customers and investors are not mutually exclusive.

Tell me that the right kind of investors (long term) were not essential to the IPO and haven't been more important to LQMT in the last 12 years.

I guess my perspective from being in sales and marketing all of my life and investing for half of my life do make a difference from your background. However, we should agree that the costs of making a special mold in times of the financial precipice seem not so prudent. I would have preferred they not hand out the paperweights at all, because they have zero value, no matter what the intended purpose was, for the shareholder and are only a reminder of frivolous spending.
