How much does the Romanian set cost from Biro Sandor's site? Unless there's a language issue, I don't see the price anywhere. Even on the ordering page.
From my knowledge the set cost is around 100 Euro without shipping , and like I mentioned above the set is entirely built by him . So the process will take about at least 1 month or more , only the knight has 25 carving steps.
This is the actual link from where you can bought the item : http://caissa.ro/Order/form.php
Even Though from some articles that I read recently he stop producing this sets from 2017 (64 years old ) but I think this is not true .
This is my latest video regarding Romanian chess sets , soon I will try to make one also with the Biro Sandor chess set

It is still possible to buy a set from Mr. Biro, mine was bought last year. I ordered it in March and received it in June, if I remember correctly. Mr. Biro was kind enough to have a couple of phone talks with me and provided all the details about the manufacture of the set (mine was the first one delivered since he started using a different lacquer for ex. ) and other stories related to the history of his set (Kasparov & Bobby Fischer received his sets from him in the 90's). Best way to order it would be to write an email directly to him, not to use the order form on the Caissa website. Price was around 100 Euros.
