I've made a Coxswain up. I sent the stickers out with a little free gift not realising that said free gift makes the letters too big and not valid for 1st class small letter postage. Therefore those of you that ordered them may have to collect from the PO and pay 20p extra postage. Many apologies. THe POs new rules on postage are so bloody stupid!
If you've ordered some please let me know if they turn up and if you had to pay extra postage.

Great... now I have to go visit the lovely people at the PO. It's easier getting through passport control than it is getting your own mail out of our local one. I'll bill you 20p with interest, ta.

Since i had the files, I thought i'd do my own as one off, it required a wee colour tweak to be visible on my rear window though.

View AttachmentThis is the style I was suggesting previously, looks great It does look very good. Problem with three colour cut stuff is the cost. No one wants to spend that much on a sticker. The most popular ones I've sold so far are the small ones.

Including postage etc probably £6 or £7. If there's a real appetite for them I can get a batch made up. As Jimbo example shows though, you have to invert the colours a bit to work on glass which is where most people want to stick them. It's why I went for a white background sticker that is the current sticker trend.

Personaly I don't like the white background and wouldn't mind spending £7 on one.

Mainly cause my car is super yellow and it would go better on mine. The others are still good honest

I like the one without the white background, if there's any of those going then I'll have one for mine

Can you have them made to order, Horney? A quick Google throws up this company, but there must be many more: ubersticky.co.uk/What you are looking for is called "Drop Shipment", and how it works is this: You take care of the online shop, but the manufacturer of the product takes care of everything else. You can use an API to send orders straight into whatever system the manufacturer uses, or just auto send emails, and they print the sticker and send it straight to the customer. You agree prices in advance and get charged monthly or per order on a Direct Debit basis. This is also popular with t-shirts, and if you are interested, I can hook you up with the UK's biggest t-shirt drop shipment company who use DTG printing (so much better and longer lasting than any other t-shirt print method). Send me a PM if the t-shirt thing interests you, but aside from that, I definitely recommend switching to a drop shipment sticker provider. It totally removes the requirement to go the post office yourself or have a stock of stickers, and it also means you can offer products that maybe only ever sell in very low volume eg this more expensive style sticker!

Nick my sticker never showed and no note from the postman.... Will try and go in to see if they can find it but doubt they will. I shall let you know if I get them.
Dont feel bad but I like the other sticker design too, and will have some bigger ones when the car is working.
