    Hi Guys, would welcome your oppionons on a price for this to see if I’m working things out right.

    The board was provided by the client and was already covered with an existing full print, it was a bit weathered so wasn’t the best substrate to work on but the client was aware that the results would be affected.

    the size is 2200mm x 1220mm, so flood coat first in green 7 series from metamark, then there is about 2 linear meters (760 wide) of colour print (MD5) laminated cut and applied.

    and about 1-2 meters of white vinyl cut and applied. Artwork was provided by the client although layout had to be done took about an hour.

    I collected the board and delivered after completion total mileage was about 12 and took about 45 mins of my time in travelling (although I tied this in with dropping my kids off at their childminders for both pick up and delivery as it was 200 yards away from the clients office)

    I have already invoiced for 2 of these so I just want to see what you guys would expect the customer to pay to see if i’m charging enough.

    Thanks peeps
    BigMo

    why did you not just print the lot?
    a lot quicker.

    around the £225 mark for that if printed.

    Sadly I am unable to print that wide at the moment, but also they wanted it modular so they could make changes to images and details if required…

    Really? Don’t forget we are not supplying the substrate the customer already has this, I would probably have said that if we where supplying the di bond..
