Forest Cobbler Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Hi I've got a customer who needs 500 printed plates. 250 each of two different designs for charity steam rallies. Steam Rally plate.pdf The plates are 76mm by 51mm anodised aluminium about 1mm thick. Can any of you do something like this, or suggest someone who can? Thanks, Valerie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
safelycrackers Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 I'll get you a price Valerie, can you upload the other design. Do you need them to be adhesive on backing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Gardner Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 £1.00 per plate for that qty Craig grahamparker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest Cobbler Posted February 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Any setting up / artwork charge / VAT on that Craig? I don't have a copy of the other design yet. It'll probably only be a change of event name rather than a change of picture. Thanks both. Valerie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest Cobbler Posted February 4, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I'll be seeing the customer in a day or two so I'll pass that on and try to get some firmer design details from her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest Cobbler Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 Hi Craig I've spoken to the customer and given her a price including VAT & postage. She says that it's higher than she paid for the last lot, so she's going back to where she got them before to see what price they are going to offer her this year. Apparently the sponsors had complained that the prices were getting too high, which is why she was asking around to see if she could get them done any cheaper. She's a regular customer for other jobs, so I'll soon know what price she's managed to get. Thanks anyway, Valerie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forest Cobbler Posted February 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 To be honest, I don't think she will. As I said, she's a regular customer and she knows that we'd give her the best price we could. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Gardner Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 no problem if you still need them just give me a shout craig Lee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest Cobbler Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 The customer has just been in again. She's ordered the plates from the company she used last year, who are doing them for 87p each! Granted, the original price they quoted her was considerably higher but when she complained, they were so desperate to keep her custom that they dropped it right down.
