Kyle Wilt Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I was wondering what you folks charge on signs with wordart in wordart, like the one Travis showed on YouTube? Thanks in advance, Kyle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clayton717 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Hi Kyle. Welcome to the Village. I have only made a few of the intersecting word art cuttings but I have sold them for $35 each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Wilt Posted February 2, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I am working on my first one and using 3/4" oak from the big box store.With Reynolds as the background and his and her names (Kevin and Brittney) thru. I was thinking 35 would be a fare price just wasn't sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryEA Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) Your first sale Kyle? Sounds reasonable to me. All's well if you both are satisfied. After you sell it, you have a little 'remorse'. Raise the price next time. PS: Nice looking family you have.

Clayton717 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I cut my first one from 3/4" but now I cut from 1/2" stock. The last couple I cut from mahogany, it was easy to cut and looked good. I liked the way it looked better in the 1/2" material versus the 3/4".

Lucky2 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Kyle, I agree with Clayton, I would price it at $35.00 also. Len Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edward Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I sell mine for $30 on 1/2" oak , I did smaller ones on 1/4" oak and sell for $20. Just my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I have sold a few of the intersecting wood signs too. I think I was charging $30 for the ones I sold but it could have been $35. I would say $35 is a fair price for these. They are really attractive and a little different, unless you are a scroller, then you see so many that it almost seems like there is no longer any other kind of sign designed now days. I too use 1/2 inch to cut my signs on. It seems to be the beest thickness for this sign, in my opinion.

LarryEA Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Like Clayton, I cut 1/2" but I also stack a 1/4" Luan and cut two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WayneMahler Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I cut mine from 1/2" red oak. I was selling them at $25 may have to rethink that. Custom designs are $35 though. What good thread to read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NC Scroller Posted February 3, 2016 Report Share Posted February 3, 2016 Pricing is the hardest part of scrolling if you are selling products. Just remember some pricing will vary by region and even by venue (show) in a region. I am sure they will sell fine at $35 in the suburbs of DC, Atlanta, NYC, Philly, London, etc but in my part of rural USA $20-$25 is the best I can do for pre made and $25 -$30 for custom. This is why with the premade I use 1/2" stock and stack cut 2X. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
