  • What is a VCP Banner ?

    Posted by Stephen Murray1 on October 16, 2009 at 9:56 am

    Morning All, I’ve had a client request a quote for a VCP Banner. Problem is i’ve never heard of it, neither have Hexis or Robert Horne. I’ve found some mention of it on the net. So it does exsist. Or am i just going crazy.

    Please don’t tell me that it’s an abbreviation for Vinyl CUt Plotted or that it’s a misspelling of PVC, ’cause i will kick myself.

    Cheers

    Steve

    VCP – vertical centre pole (as used in banner cassettes)…but I’d double check, there is no harm in going back to the customer and saying VCP is a term you are not familiar with 😉

    Nearly right Robert, in Scotland a VCP Banner would be " A Very Cheap Paper Banner" :lol1: :lol1:

    Haha, You would think that us Scot’s have a reputation for being frugal. Dam right. In fact i’m Aberdonian. That make me twice the penny pincher. LOL.

    Spoke to client, who inturn spoke to his client who said that it was just an exterior banner. What a let down huh.

    Enjoy the weekend Guys. Hope none of you end up working.

    Come on Phill, we all wanted to know if we all needed to order that special roll of VCP, so we could be ahead of the game!

    I called to a Scotsman’s house once and he was stripping the wallpaper in the hall,

    ‘Oh, redecorating?’ I said,

    ‘No….moving’ was his reply.

    Ta dum! These are the jokes folks…..wagga wagga 😀
