I have cut out some that where in the trash already, because to other sheets are in my attic wrapped again to protect untill i got time to cut them all

so they are a bit wrinkled, but you can see the quality etc etc.

I have received the invoice, and i calculated the costs...

I have good and bad news, the bad news first..

As you could see in the report on DLF, the cutting was a problem

But that is only a problem for etikets with round corners..
The straight etikets are fine, since i can cut those on my rol cutter, and with scissors

Now the good news, i have stated that the costs will be depended on the orders i have received, so that means more etikets, the cheaper the price per etiket.

I thought it would be between 5€ and 7,50€ each like stated in the first post, based on cutting and printing.

Since the cutting was a problem, the printer/cutter just billed me with the costs of the printing, and one knive for his cutting device.

Calculated with the orders i have received, the final price is 2,2€ per etiket.

I will start with the cutting soon, because i have had a very busy time last weeks, i simply did not have the time yet to cut them.

Anyway, when i have cut them, i will contact you guy's by PM to make the final arrangements.

I can provide a link to the PDF files that i have used, so you can use that as a template if you want to cut the round corners yourself with a scissors or something.

Little update,

My livingroom looks like a production area atm  :)




I have cut the sheets into strokes with ordinary scissors, so they fit under my rolcutter..






Carefully put them into position..




I am cutting them as clean as possible, so that you guys can cut them to the exact size if desired.




The stickers have 5 mm. between them, and i simply cut it there so they are a bit bigger than the originals.
there are people that requested the actual size though, and those i will cut to the exact size ofcourse   ::)



Take 1, Camera.. Light... Action!

Clack!

CUT!  ;D




And presto ! nice and sharp cutted  :-*




One sheet done !
note that this was a bulk, and the person wanted to cut them himself, so i cutted them in strokes of 6, so they fit in an "A4" Envelope for shipping.

NEXT!  ;D



Two more sheets to go, same process  ;)



Will continue soon, it was a bit late yesterday when i finished the first sheet...

incredible effort! honestly, we need to pay you more for the stickers, but just the price you mentioned. if they had cut it at the factory, it would have cost more as well ...
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

Ok, your stickers are 7,50 € each then  ;D :lol: :D

no seriously,
I will specify the amount in the PM for each participant, and also the paypal adress.
If there are people that like to transfer more than the specified amount, they are free to do so  :D

Remember that i am not doing it to profit as stated before..
