firefighter1138 1 Posted February 27, 2009 I'm new to this and don't know what to charge for the little decals auto dealers put on the back of the cars they sell. Graphic is easy and will weed easy. Customer is small and only wants 75 decals, 25 white, 25 gold metallic, and 25 silver metallic. I think that Oracal 651 metallic will work. Open for suggestions on vinyl and price to charge.

Blues 18 Posted February 27, 2009 Good luck with that size of text It's not to bad I cut them for a buddy of mine that's got a used car lot. Just try not to use real fancy fonts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cohesion 0 Posted February 27, 2009 You should be ok cutting them as long as you don't have a Laser point... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bayshorecreations 30 Posted February 27, 2009 I did these a few weeks ago $1ea/100 1"x6" $1 each? You need to re think your pricing! No offense intended. I would have been at $2 - $2.50 each for those. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bayshorecreations 30 Posted February 27, 2009 You should be ok cutting them as long as you don't have a Laser point... I am thinking about getting a laser point. Do you mind if I ask why you say that? Just looking for all the feedback I can get on them. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cohesion 0 Posted February 27, 2009 It's great, it's just not good for small letters, atleast I haven't had any luck with it. I've heard others say the same. A glance in the Laser point area of the forum might help you make up your mind. I got the contour cut to work, I really like the LP over all, but I'm thinking of getting something else to have for doing small letters and details. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No offense taken! They usually buy white in larger quantities @ .60ea and I sub them out through versa-tags. I am in a very competitive market and this is exceeds the going price for smaller orders. Their raised letter license plate frames dont even cost them 2.50ea!!! If you can get a car dealer to buy your decals at that price, you're a fantastic salesman!

Blues 18 Posted February 28, 2009 You should be ok cutting them as long as you don't have a Laser point... I have an lp 24 and have cut letters as small as 1/8 inch tall without any problems they can be a pain to weed but no problem with the cutting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
