Lord Ferguson Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 I would have thought Karen would have had a special bespoke box built.. it is a limited edition after all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 i guess that puts the inital purchase price up mark? and maybe there wasn't time from idea to delivery for spalding to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 i guess that puts the inital purchase price up mark? and maybe there wasn't time from idea to delivery for spalding to Didn't think of that Sean... would you pay more for a bespoke boxed one though - I know I would... boxes can't cost that much of the initial price - Karen told me she had those sent via airmail as they would have been late for Spalding otherwise - so timing would make more sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 i guess it would be down to what design and style you have,text on it ect,it all takes time to have made up and printed ect,would also have to be a limited run,so the setup costs fro them would prob be higher at the printers that is?

I am sure that is true thinking about it - I don't know much about printing really... have a few labels done at work... but we have them done in 10's of thousands at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 used to have a very good friend own a printers until he went bust,all takes time to set upo and get the machines ready for the run,the more you do the cheaper it gets obvously,like your lables ect,and thats basic stuff,if it has all the makers detaisl on,and karrens and pics / info on the model,it all needs to be layed out test printed for size and quallity ,and then re adjusted if needed ect,all adds up i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest quangova Posted April 8, 2006 Share Posted April 8, 2006 Special boxs would have added another couple of squid to the unit price.. and as said time was a limiting factor! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
