pee Posted September 25, 2018 Report Share Posted September 25, 2018 I need a stake similar to the attached picture, only need 1. I can order this one but its £45 with postage and vat, just for the stake. Anyone know of a similar item more reasonable priced? Also what would you retail this type of stake and 200mm x 150mm sign for? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think your customer would be happy to pay £80? I think I'd struggle to get £80. £80-£50materials Leaves £30 minus vat, tax, machine/cutter wear Leaves around £20 Is that enough for your time plus you wanna bit of profit?

Count Muppet Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 Don’t know how similar this is to what you want? if you wanted a few doing, you would get discount plus the work is already done for you. https://www.timpson.co.uk/engraved-products/memorial/memorial-crosses-and-stakes/laminate-stake.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right, £20 is not enough but the customer won't give a toss how much profit you're making. I probably wouldn't get the job at £80 but that's my price. The other option is order it yourself from Amazon for £17.95 all done and sell to customer at £50, more profit and no work involved!!
