Alright, check it -



We're trying to get some stickers done, and so far we've found a shop that'll do 'em, but they're kinda asking for ALOT. We're looking to get something in the 24"X8" area, in mirror-chrome material, in not very intricate designs. So far, we've been quoted at $30ish PER STICKER, and although we are eager to get them done, we're also a bunch of broke-asses. They aren't even charging us for the labor - just the costs of the materials involved. We're looking to get 10 made of one design, and 15ish done of another design.



If anyone knows of any graphic design shops in the Olympia, Tacoma, South Seattle area, don't hesitate to holler back.





oh, and if anybody wants to buy my turbo so I can afford paint and stickers, look here http://www.hachiroku.net/forum/viewtopic.p...1948&highlight=

I'd have to see the design, $30 is steep for any vinyl sticker, but i cant say that I blame them, it's really not profitable to cut a small quantity and by small quantity i mean under 250 stickers. you've got setup, cutting and cleaning of the vinyl. You'll prolly find someone that will do it for $10 a sticker but they will prolly charge you $45 for setup.

I have looked at a shop that did custom designs. And they said that it would be about $6 per sticker. The stickers that I had in mind were not nearly as big as yours but it still included the initial design and first 5 stickers.



The place was fastsigns here in Olympia. Not sure if the prices are still the same because I looked over a year ago.

Fast signs usually does the setup for $35. The nopistons stickers that I made for apple blossom cost me $3.75 per sticker after the setup fee.

Also, as far as vinyl goes, the mirror/chrome or any of the metallic colors are the most expensive.

True. My crew was going to go mirrored but they were going to cost us $20 each as opposed to $9 in black and white. www.rainstate.com he can do some crazy *** cool graphix.

Fastsigns at South Center has been pretty good for us, ask for Aron.. he'll at least tell you straight up if he can get you a competitive quote or not. True to their name he has bailed me out on some last minute things, too.



Neil, my 2 cents
