Re: Alastair's gift to me!!
Thanks Scotty and others for the kind words.
I had the artwork which I had done a few years ago and thought I would rework it to fit the coffee mugs and keyrings and then make them available for purchase.
I did an initial tester mug to see what the quality was like. I put the FX coupe and one of my paintings onto it and was quiet happy with the look, but I also wanted to see if it was durable. So we had it for about 4 months and used it and it was hand washed, then it was past on to a friend who has a wash machine. He has had it, used it and machine washed it for about 4 months now. It hasn't deteriorated, so at least we know it 's OK.
I have had a further 4 made up, then I met someone who was going to fly back to Oz so I sent the FB one to Scotty.
In the mean time I photographed the mugs and keyrings and put together this little brochure and Andrea has worked out some costings, taking postage and exchange rate into consideration.
Basically the Key-Rings weigh very little so if we send one or up to four of them the postage would be the same.
When sending a Mug I can stick about four Key-Rings into the Mug and they go 'postage free'. The postage rates make it proportionately cheaper to send as the quantity increases, so that is reflected in the prices too.
Costs including postage would be as follows: 1 Mug = AU$ 16.00; 2 Mugs = AU$ 30.00; 4 Mugs = AU$ 44.00; 6 Mugs = AU$54.00
Keyrings will be AU$ 2.50 each excluding postage. Postage of AU$ 2.00 for up to 4.
Artworks are as follows: FX Coupe, FJ Woody, FC Convertible, FB Convertible, EJ Coupe, HR Coupe, HK Coupe.

Of course you know Craig, that the "Blue Dog of Happiness" dose this sort of thing all the time!wot179 wrote:Beaudy!
But I still think that Alastair's prices are a bit cheaper..(even with postage!!)
This is by no means an offense to the Dog or Alastair..just goes to show what has happened to this country when we sell our local manufacturing to cheap Asian imports!!! (South Africa is'nt in Asia! )

Re: Alastair's gift to me!!
I just need to make a slight adjustment to the prices of the 4 and six mug packages. I was having a blond moment when calculating and left out a few mugs when adding up The prices below are now correct, but sill work out cheaper as the quantity increases. The prices for 1 mug and 2 mugs remains unchanged.

Re: Alastair's gift to me!!
While Alistair is floating around again I thought I would dig this thread up to say thanks again for the cups, I use them every day and they draw much attention from visitors.
Cheers,Craig.
