Time is more important than money, in this particular case. The waiting list for both Sachs and Vanilla is now in excess of 5 years. Plus, you'll have to pay them what the bikes cost in 5 years, not today's prices. I wouldn't even consider a bike with a long waiting list. There are plenty of excellent builders who can make you a frame in a few months, rather than years.
