I have a customer that we do quite a bit of emb. for & have done a few small vinyl jobs for them.

I've quoted on lettering 26 trks. Vinyl is 24"x9" all one color, red. They will do the installation. Name of co., arcked, city & dot #'s.

I quoted $30.00 pr trk. Am I in line?

I think so. I came up with $14.59 per decal using 3M premium cast vinyl and EstiMate Pricing Software.

That sounds fair to me too but only for the quantity. If they had just wanted a single or just a few, I'da charged $20 each.

I agree. I just priced a similar job (1 truck) at $50.00. The $30.00 price sounds right on.
