and they want collection in person?

[mrs maggot]

yes only because they seem a little confused over the whole postage thing, i will happily collect it on behalf of anyone on the forum, and then post out to them, i use a courier service for £8 if that helps there is a bit of weight there with the glass shelves.

I found this web site here and if you already got cutter you can order small sample pack to try it out.
it cost £151.65+VAT so is not huge amount of money. I think I am going to give it a go
I can see some pssibilites in there

Ive seen this ages ago but never triedit. I guess it was a bit expensive back then.

What do people charge for this? e.g. how much would you charge for a keyring or something small?

Is it worth doing for one offs or would runs be better?

where are you thinking of using it Paul?

cheers
Dave.

well... lets say blank bottle opener/keyring


it will cost about £2.20 then you need to add cost of making it + profit.... so end cost of bottle oppener would be about £4
I was thinking about making stickers only to promote my stuff. I must say sticvker made this way look very good.

[mrs maggot]

the lady never sold hers that was on ebay, i have her contact details - for £50 it would be a good start there is loads of stuff included

[chongsta]

Thats a realy good looking bottle opener Is just normal printed vinyl? is the adhesive strong enough or would you use a dab of glue as well?

I would sell that for more than £5 mate!

Hmmm...ya got me thinking now!
