Flag Stickers

I've been monitoring the count to have the 'Flag' stickers be part of the Delica.ca offering. They have been under the heading “Are Delica stickers still available” started by 'RadarGrrl'. The 'Flag' sticker count has gone up slowly since it started in Dec 2014 with Nordo wanting 4. It has gown to a total of 18, by my count, @ the end of February. Falco and Mark said they will get some made, likely by the summer, if we can get @ least 75 takers. So far nearly 1600 have visited the post. (typically over 200 per month) With over 7500 members and only 18 interested it looks like a dead issue. To be fair to those that have indicated they want some I suggest that if we don't have 75 by the end of April then we should forget about it. The last thing we need is for this to drag on so long to get 75 that those that are presently committed have left the site and we get stuck with a bunch of stickers nobody wants!! (Ask 'macro' how fast decals move if no one has committed prior to ordering them.)

My 2 bits worth.

Presently wanting stickers:

Nordo 4
lrp374 2
Knibby 2
Volnoir 2
Pajero 2
Cementhead72 2
Big-Bird 2
tanadaear 2

For those who haven't seen the 'Flag' I've attached a couple pictures.

There are a few sticker printer companies on ebay and in major centers who can print smaller orders.

I used one outfit here in Calgary who was able to print a minimum of 20 for me. The lease on their building came up and they decided not to renew. Last I heard is they sold their gear and started working eslewhere.

If they get done as die-cut vinyl, I'll get ten.

Is this your own design and do you print these on your own?

What is the cost per unit with a 75 minimum order?

The design was done by a group on the island several years ago. I got mine from a member ( mararmeisto ) who was distributing all the Delica.ca stickers @ the time. Mine has been on my van since 2009 and still looks good as new. It is just a 'sticker' so it only cost a few bucks not like the vinyl cut type macro had produced. The vinyl cut type are really nice ( I should know as I likely have the only one of his in BC ) but I got the impression from Falco they would be looking for something in the same price range as their other offerings. I don't know if this info helps or not. Maybe Falco or Mark can comment.

Here's an EBAY guy I have dealt with for my custom Turbo Snail Decals (Vinyl cut, does nice work)I sent him the pic of your rear window sticker.

He quoted these prices for 6" x 2.5"-3" vinyl cut (2 tone red on white)...But if we wanted to do different colors he might be able to entertain that as well.

Hello I can absolutely do this decal. How many do you need or want? The more you buy the lower the price. I can easily keep it at the price range of $5 or lower depending on qty. I would need to print a minimum of 6. After 6 the price will drop. if you do 12 I can do $4 each. At 25 I can $3 each...At 50 I can get it down to $2 each. If you want more you get the idea :). Then tack on shipping...

And he can ship final printed quantities to multiple central locations if needed. USPS is cheap!

Nice work B-B. It may be best to handle this as a group buy rather than a long term offering by Delica.ca. The sticker I have is 4"x2" which is a real nice size. This may even improve the price. I think your idea of 1 order and multiple shipping locations could work well. I'd be happy to distribute for BC. If the 18 we have now could be bumped a little I would think an order of 50 should be possible. I'd be willing to order a few extra if they are only $2 or 3 each.

So i need a good quality Pdf file for him to work with.

I am okay with brokering the cost provided I get reimbursed for the ones I am not really buying.

If I do get the vinyl cut I would consider the 50 count for the primary order take 15 for the Alberta contingent.

I'll take 15, that leaves 20 left to the people who wanted them in the first place. BAM!

Price update:

A guy in calgary can do 2 color vinyl for 35$ for 50pcs with a 4" x 2" decal. I am gonna commit on everyone's behalf but I would like to be paid when I get ready to Post your orders.

We probably need the original PDF file of the mitsu maple. If he has to fiddle with the picture version he may have to charge more for his time. All pcs will be picked up by me and shipped to recipients who expressed interest.
