MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted October 15, 2015 $5 per tile you sure that seems low when you figure 1.50 to 1.75 for a tile then ink and all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

towman208 38 Posted October 16, 2015 Prices are going to very from place to place state to state. You have to feel what people are willing to pay in your neck of the woods. I may be able to get $10.00 a tile here in Tennessee, but Joe Blow may only be able to get $2.50 in Texas. And it also depends on how bad someone is wanting said thing you have to sell. But all in all you have to count what you have into it. Does no good to sell it for less then it took you to make it. We all are here to make money unless you are rich and just like doing it for the hell of it. And if that is you pm me cause I have some ocean front land here in Tn. I want to sell you. lol 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jaybyrd 3,770 Posted October 17, 2015 I can't give them away so $5 seems like a great price. Every area is different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MadHatterGraphix 1,258 Posted October 17, 2015 It is all demographic related less high income areas won't spend as much and or don't think they need to be to classy with such things as specially decorated items. We do have folks like that here also though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted October 17, 2015 I can't give them away so $5 seems like a great price. Every area is different. true but with the cost of materials a and add a couple of misprints in at $5 I wouldn't offer them. I know every area is different - selling the printer and watching others - one just sold in NC for $8,000. checking printers within 300 miles and there is almost none out there in this are on cl, e(*&, etc and was thinking that tax time they always go up about $1K as money gets looser but with short supply maybe I am leaving a lot on the table. lots of them out there with a lot of issues that are played down but not much ready to rock and roll. do geography plays a big roll in the price you can get for anything using Bandit Darvils logic on smarts (works for price too) "how smart you are depends on where in the country you are standing right now" (not a direct quote but close - same goes for price - price depends on where you are at - at a given time ok actual quote but you get the idea " When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the country you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.

Dakotagrafx 7,297 Posted October 19, 2015 on big ticket items like the roland printer - the prices go up during tax season - people are looser with their money and supply dwindles. if the supply of printers is a indication at this point of the year come tax season the prices should hit new records (none around this part of the country even ones that need work are not listed anywhere). had a dealer call on mine already so he could double his money and flip it thinking I was pressed to sell - didn't work out well for him as I did my homework and am still using it to make money with 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
