Typical Features of Vinyl Banners Ordered Online
1. Online Vinyl Banner Ordering means Quick, Efficient, No Hassle Service
Most companies that sell vinyl banners online are producing custom printed vinyl banners,
trade show displays, and sign materials for customers at remote locations. We
handle hundreds of jobs just like yours every month, and have been doing so for
more several years. So we know the kinds of issues you are likely to run into,
and we know the easiest and quickest solutions. It is not at all unusual for us
to receive a request for a banner first thing Monday morning, and have it
approved, produced and shipped across the continent before the end of that week.
2. We Use "Tried and True" Solvent-Based Technology
All our vinyl banners are output on heavy duty digital printing machines using
true solvent inks. Some of our competitors try to get away with less durable
inks run on cheaper equipment. If they don't specifically say they are using
"solvent inks", then chances are they are not. They are probably using a
water soluble, dye-based ink, or possibly a "solvent-light" product.
Why don't they use the real thing? Because they don't have enough volume to
justify the expensive solvent-based equipment, and therefore try to use the same
equipment used for indoor products like posters and display prints.
The problem with non-solvent inks is that they are not UV-resistant enough to
last very long in bright sunlight, and they are not sufficiently weatherproof to
withstand outdoor conditions. Rain, for instance. We know this is the case
because we have experimented with these other machines. In spite of the claims
that the output is durable, UV-resistant, and weatherproof, we have found this
is SIMPLY NOT TRUE. The printed images scratch more easily and fade much more
rapidly in bright sunlight.
3. We Only Have One Price
In case you haven't noticed, WE ONLY HAVE ONE PRICE! (Well, actually we
have a US and Canadian price, but we try to keep them more or less equal.) Our
price includes normal finishing -- grommets, seams, or pole pockets. We do not
charge extra for these things unless you need something special.
So that means when we say our vinyl banners cost $4.95 /sq.ft. that is the final
price. No need to add on extra charges for finishing.
We DO charge for non-routine things. If you need us to do things like scanning
your images, touching them up, picking up graphics from other sources, creating
original designs, or sending out printed proofs, we have to charge a small
amount for these services. And we also charge for shipping.
But we DO NOT "nickle and dime" you with charges for routine parts of the
operation such as extra colors, uploading charges, "opening your file" charges.
And we don't charge extra for finishing (unless you want something special).
3. Our Price is the Lowest on the Web
As far as we know, our vinyl banner price is the lowest anywhere. We regularly
compare our pricing with our major competitors, and we go out of our way to be
lower.
