seems like an easy enough thing to profit off of, and it's free exposure for the site.. let me know if you find an alternative that would be color matched still. : )

Think bigger picture.

In the same amount of time to make 15 sets of decals I can sell 2 A-boards and double my profit in less time.

Same reasoning as my customers can't understand why I charge a delivery charge. Time and Gas! I can answer the phone and make more money instead of spending an hour plus driving into Seattle and back.

If it was such a profit maker the owners of this site would sell them.

I would hope they would just create the design, size, colors etc, push it off to another company to create it, then mail them out as they are ordered. lots of room for profit, aren't these 20$ a piece? if they are paying a company to bulk produce them it couldn't cost much time or money to obtain them.

sure, not nearly as much total profit per sale as other items, but a good chance for a company that isn't constantly busy pushing other products, to make a few bucks in their down time. blackline obviously has higher priorities, not knocking them, I understand.

Nah theres no profit involved, do it just as a service to the community!

Sorry to say guys, we've been slammed with the Alliance stuff, and also we're hopefully moving into a new shop in Charlotte, so thats obviously a big time consumer. Ill personally see that the vinyls get into production this weekend, give us one more chance!

AlvinHuyN met up with him today and we talked about decals and I ran a bunch of samples. I can print them now. I want to come up with a bunch of different designs and run them by the admins then I will become a sponsor. I don't need to outsource them as I have all the equipment in-house.

after seeing the sponsorship price, youll think again. internet brands is ridiculous with their rates, but what can you do

Hopefully, they didn't go up from last time I checked on the rates...lol I belong to another forum and they two partners haven't sold out to the big Internet Media giants, yet anyways.

They make a nice income off of advertising. Not bad for a couple of guys working out of a small office.

Is nice to know that the thread I started 14 months ago has flourish.

Here is the first "My350Z" vinyl ever made, still as perfect as the first day I put it on 14 months ago. I will be ordering a new set soon just to have in my archive.

Thanks! How good can you match my LeMans Sunset color? I may have you to do some other projects that I'm working on for me.
