    I think on a lot of products it does, I haven't seen many products where I would not make a decent profit doing work at the prices the wholesellers offer
  5. Discussion Pricing your print/jobs/installs >>MEGA Thread<<.

    When I need a quick way to price something I don't normally offer but want to do in house, I go to a trade printer website, see how much they charge and I know that if they can make a profit and run a business off that price then I can too because I know I have much lower overhead. I then price...
  6. Question IS GRIMCO LIKE THIS WITH EVERYTHING?

    here in Houston we have GSG, Fellers, Reece, Grimco and probably a few other suppliers. Grimco easily beats any price I give them from any of the other suppliers (with which I already have deeply discounted pricing). Sometimes I'll get a 30-40% discount on a product from fellers and I think no...

    This reminds me when I went to meet with my corporate buyer at their office I was wearing shorts and a tshirt (do not own pants and only wear "workout clothes"). When I was signing in at the office they had a rule of no shorts or skirts on production floor. I did see every one staring at my...

    The app made headlines a few years ago because it was claimed the app was a way for the Russians to collect face data as the pictures are sent for cloud processing
  14. Wanted - A Few Guinea Pigs for Testing

    There is a phone app called FaceApp , does all kinds of cool face filters from adding beards, changing age, expression etc. Looks like that is what PS is trying to do with the neural filters. I like to play around with the app and always wondered why PS or another desktop software doesn't do...

    I recently got a big order from one of the major retailers, they needed some labels fast and their preferred supplier had materials stuck in container ships. First a junior purchasing associate came and looked at my shop, all I did was talk about my Colorado 1650 and showed him how fast and...

    Does the printer have white ink? Did you use the white spot color in illustrator/corel when designing? Does veraworks show that the file contains white ? There are some good videos online showing how to set up white and cutting files for versaworks

    I think I've only seen one other company (other than roommates) sell Disney wall decals, although it might have been something close to decals but not actual decals, some other type of wall décor. I wouldn't be surprised if roommates has an exclusive wall decal deal with Disney and all the other...
