Interest? Mixed game Placards (1 Viewer)

[timinater]

I'm pricing out some mixed game placards for myself and @Kain8. Is this something anyone is interested in if I can get a volume discount from a manufacturer?

What's a reasonable price that would have you interested?
---
Looks like I've found a vendor local to me who is able to do a volume discount for us. To get some initial pricing I asked for a quote of 20 sets of 8 cards, and the price came out to the equivalent of about $4 USD each/$32 for a set of 8.

They also were able to set up a sample for me and I think they look great. 3x5, 1 1/16th" in thickness, custom engraving and the ability to round corners, etc.

I think the next step will be to start to do some polling to see what game variants people will be interested in.

Interested! Would they be plastic or wood? What size are you thinking?

I was thinking plastic and roughly 3x5 in size. Added that to OP

 

[markleteenie]

Would you be able to engrave the @abby99 succinct instructions on the back side of the plaques for reference?

Interested.

One option is customsigns.com and their design tool is pretty easy to use

Here’s how mine turned out

Would the directions on how to play the game be printed on the back of the cards?

Mind if I ask what your price was for those?

Are those thin/flexible or hard placards?

Good question - scares me price-wise a little bit but I'll ask around. Getting quotes at the moment.

Nice cards, but in Scrotum, you must keep at least one card. So in 5-card Scrotum, you can discard only 1-4 cards.

I paid $5.06 +tax each (5.95 with 15% discount) for 3”x4”, not cheap but manageable. $131 for the set. Looks like they are running a 30% sitewide sale right now, and you can get 2”x4” for $3.95.

They are hard plastic. Barely any give and material reminds me of what you would see on a casino blackjack table, that little card some of them have that explains the rules of the sidebet. It’s the plastic “shiny gold” option

In my house, you can discard all and play the board if you so choose. It’s not a strategy I would recommend though

 

[gmunny]

interested too!

Excellent "super moron" detector, though, the guaranteed moron being the third players to hold zero cards on any given hand.

Interested as well

Excel, card stock, laminator. But I get the appeal of having something nicer. Yes, I know I misspelled Badeucey. My group isn't into all the super circus games.

I made this placard from a piece of 1/4” Poplar. Will probably finish with a few coats of Tru oil. Anyone that wants custom placards get in touch.

I got mine from customsigns.com. They are the 4"x2" plastic engraved.
I've kept them pretty simple and added 'pot limit' and 'no limit' signs, as well.
I'm happy with how they turned out.
They are white with burgundy lettering, although the image makes them look a little yellow. The font is BookmanOldStyle or something like that (without going back to look at the order.)

Nice! Would they all have to have the same logo to be a volume discount?

 

[kwmatt]

I'm in

I think so - just tossed the logo in as a test I think for a GB we'd do generic ones.
