i dont mind spending money and i realize the low numbers of stickers is driving the price up, but still 8 bucks for a sticker.

It's not the low numbers that is the reason the pricing being what it is, it's the labor involved to make them because of the detailing and the font.

Judging by the poll I conducted, we have had requests for over 100 stickers, so it's not the low numbers.

Hey guys!

Thanks for the great response! I'll be sending out the invoices as soon as I can, probably tonight or tomorrow night for some of you.

I know there's been some question about the prices of the stickers, but the reason for the prices is that this isn't merely a sticker but it's actually machine-cut vinyl. Which means there's a quite a bit of labour involved in getting it to the finished stage. If things go well this round, I imagine I'll be able to drop the price slightly for the next buy, once I know exactly how much is being spent on these and what it's costing.

I'll be cutting the prototypes of these tomorrow, and I'll try to get some pictures up for you guys to see exactly what you're getting.

I know a guy with an FJ that lives down the street from you if you need a second opinion for testing! (hint hint nudge nudge)

if you ordered 5k stickers they would be 1/4 of the cost. thats what i meant. knowing guys that have vinyl machines i can tell you that they arent expensive, just takes a little more time for something more detailed, but price usually isnt effected if you go to a big shop.

You are exactly correct.

Except that I'm not confident I can sell 5,000 stickers which is why I'm not ordering that many. Also, I'm the guy who runs the vinyl cutter and I know exactly what it takes to get this job through production. I also know that if I'm going to be spending hours and hours getting these things ready, then I'd like something for my time.
Quite frankly, if you don't like what I'm selling then don't buy it.
