Does that include plating? Is it Anderson's or Allied that puts the micro-thin silver on there? Obviously the plating should be thick enough to last a while, several posters have mentioned silver rubbing off after a short period when done by one of these two suppliers, but I forget which one. Also is it possible to do this with more of a "german silver" i.e. some nickel content for durability?
