No No No!!!! I'm just being cheap and letting the winners buy the poster at cost. I can get the poster for $12, but it costs more if someone else were to buy it. I was really wanting to give away the posters for free (to the winners), but that would really cut into the money that I was hoping to use to buy a new server.
"I'm just being cheap and letting the winners buy the poster at cost." what does "at cost" mean? The way I read it is that you are letting the winners buy the poster and then I think as opposed to the non-winners who don't get to buy the poster?? But you said that's not right. So I guess my question is will I get to buy the poster?
Beowulf: Caedes is having them printed by daprints, a company that makes and ships prints from art that artists upload. The idea is that after printing and shipping cost, DA takes a cut, and Caedes gets a cut (for a new server).
Caedes is giving up his profit for the winners of the contest, so that it's cheaper for them, and because it would seriously eat profits on a low-margin item if he had to buy a few of them, from daprints, to then give away. Poster-sized printing ain't cheap. My school charges students almost $3 per foot of length to print on 3 foot wide glossy paper, and they aren't even trying to turn a profit.
At least, that's how I understand it... :-)
Yes I think so, as long as you have a credit card. If not I can just order it for you and then fly to your house and deliver it in person. You live in Frace right?
