What's the best place online to make and sell bumper stickers?

[erowe1]

Come on people. Answer his question!

You have no idea how urgent this is!

There's no time to explain why.

Use your own art program (i.e. Photoshop) and negotiate a good price with a local print shop. JMHO

[Kotin]

zazzle is what I have used.. but mostly just more making them.. you can sell on there I think..

by sell, you mean, you do your own fulfillment?

Or they take care of it for you?

That's a big difference in costs.

I absolutely agree, from personal experience.

But it doesn't hurt to try online, some places may be cheaper, even after your shipping.

No, I don't want to do fulfillment + s/h. I just want to submit graphics, drive people to the link, and then withdrawl profit out of my Paypal account. I think Zazzle and CafePress do it like that but I was curious if there were any others, and which one was the best?

This is for a Gubernatorial candidate in TN. Ain't capitalism great? :D

I have friends who have used http://cafepress.com/ (http://www.cafepress.com/), but I've never used it myself.

yeah, zazzle, cafepress, printfection will do exactly that.

or http://www.libertystickers.com/ (not sure if they share profits)

No I didn't. A print shop can format your work properly (as most shops now use digital prepress) and teach you what you need to know.

[GunnyFreedom]

local printshop + ebay = lower price + wider margin :D

Yyes I understand but I don't have the time, nor the inclination, to do this myself. Also I don't want to put out any money in advance which is why I'm looking for an online solution. :)

Uh, lower price or lower cost? :confused: He's very busy, you know.

[GunnyFreedom]

Price, as I said. Certainly not lower cost, as the zazzle route is almost no cost at all (for Matt). Zazzle certainly has their cost, but no cost to Matt. The equation refers to the selling price being lower, while Matt makes a larger margin. :D

Yes ma'am, I do indeed know the difference between pricing and costing. :)

Well, if you talk to a local printer, he'll print a sample for you at little to no cost, so you can decide if you want a mass print of the sticker. Definitely deal with a local shop, not the chain stores. You're more likely to get a good press man that way. (I know a local press man myself, as he was also my digital prepress instructor)

This is for a Gubernatorial candidate in TN.

Which one? Ramsey was the only GOP candidate who was really willing to use nullification, and he lost the primary. Are you talking about a third party candidate?

[libertybrewcity]

There are a few big ones. Cafepress I believe is the most well known. There is also Zazzle, Printfection, and Spreadshirt. Here is a great guide that will help you out.

I don't want to put out any money for this, specifically in a mass printing.
