Hey I am wondering what a reasonable price to sell custom diecuts is. I am buying a vinyl cutter soon, and want to make a profit and pay back my expenses and at the same time dont want to make them extremely expensive. By square inch, what is a reasonable price?

I would say around $0.20-0.30 per square inch is reasonable? That's what I would be willing to pay.

yeah prontocuts also charges like 2 cents per whole or something like that
you use your dads cutter so you really dont have any expenses to pay
plus generally you would want larger order so in bulk its oaky for 6 cents
but really if somebody wants one 16 square inch sticker itll cost like 1 dollar
so its costing just as much to ship as to make the sticker

it takes time to make stickers
its not like the cutter is doing everything for you
idk maybe not that much but still 2.4 cents is a little too cheap
idk how you would make profit

I don't have set prices for stickers, if its a single sticker that I know I may fuck up weeding and may have to cut again, it'll cost up to 50 cents a square inch, orders over a thousand of something simple...3 cents mostly.

Basically the same here. I really don't have a set price. I just look at the at the logo and see how tech it is.
