Hi Everyone,
Before you flame me, I think this is the correct forum, because I have read almost every post on here. Read my whole post before deciding that I am an annoying scammer, trust me, I am not. I am a boater that paid like $140 for my extremely simple boat name graphic but didn't have a choice at the time.
Been around for years, but mostly as a reader, I guess I am a shy poster (but I do have some good ones out there). I have used a number of your discussions and learned a
ton from you guys. I own a 1982 Toyota Landcruiser FJ40. I posted a similar notice on my Landcruiser group and have been able to help a ton of people with logos, garage signs, etc, etc. My girlfriend asked me if I was doing any boat decals, which I thought was a good idea. I am doing all the layout work for free, which as you know can cost a small fortune.
I
NOW have a professional sign shop at my disposal. I can make graphics/decals of any kind, and I will charge you less than half of what things would cost anywhere else, but only for forum members. I am not a professional decal maker, but I did work at one for two years and I can make just about any vehicle/boat graphic you want. I just made a nice batch of Toyota logos and they look great. I have a real day job, so I am just doing this for fun. I will spend an hour or two per night processing your orders until I lose my sanity, my boat goes back in the water or my girlfriend dumps me (then I will have to go search for another one).
I repeat, I am not trying to make money here, just looking for a way to give back to my groups since you have given a great deal to me.
Just shoot me an email with what you want, what color and how big and I will hopefully make it within a day or two, collect payment via PayPal and that's that. If you don't like what you get, I will make it again or just refund your money, no argument. I just rebuilt a vintage outboard motor and recreated all the cover graphics, looks pretty cool.
Available Colors
-Dark Green
-Silver
-Bright Yellow (lotus logo)
-White
-Red
-Baby Blue
-Dark Blue
-Bright Green (lotus logo)
-Mustard
-Bright Orange
-Black
-Flat Black
-I can get any color you want but if it is a weird color, I might have to charge you extra because sometimes they make me buy 30 feet at a time for strange stuff, like holographic vinyl, etc.
A cheap sign shop would charge you at least $30-$100 for the layout and $10 a decal for a 5" custom job (premium gloss vinyl). Like I said, I won't charge you for the layout instead just a flat rate. I hope this is reasonable but let me know.
3" tall = $3.00
4" tall = $4.00
5" tall = $5.00
(you get the idea)
all the way up to 24" tall = $24
Technically I can do something large enough for a 747 jumbo jet, I just need to buy some bigger vinyl and figure out the cost.
You are already getting a big discount, at least 65% less than what the sign shops in my area are charging. If you think I am nuts, remember not to compare this with a stock decal, this is custom stuff, any size, any color and anything you want. If you want a hot pink Four Winns Logo 2 foot x 2 foot with a flamingo sticking out of the side, you got it.
Here are some additional quantity discounts to reflect the savings I would get on raw materials and bulk production.
6-10 discount 10%
11-20 discount 20%
21-50 discount 30%
50+ discount 40%
Shipping should be relatively cheap for smaller things, usually $1 or $2 via regular mail, I will just use a padded envelope. If you get something huge, then I would roll it up and put it in a tube and that is like $8.
If you are ready to move ahead, PM or Email me the following list:
1.) Job: A description of exactly what you want, Color, Size, Quantity. Please double check your spelling for custom named logos, etc.
2.) Shipping: Your name and full shipping address.
3.) Cash: Goto PayPal --> Send Money --> Personal --> Payment Owed --> my email address is in my profile
4.) Your "iFourWinns" username, so I can figure out who you are if you PM me or whatever.
Thanks,
Jay
