Custom Die-Cut Stickers for Rocky Point, New York

Two hundred and fifty stickers at $375.00

Two hundred and fifty die-cut stickers at 2.5 by 2.5 inches come to $375.00, which works out to $1.50 apiece. That number is not a bundle or a package deal, it is two figures multiplied together. A 2.5 by 2.5 inch sticker covers 6.25 square inches, and at 250 pieces the rate is 24 cents per square inch. What that buys is a run deep enough to cover every pane of glass a small storefront owns, leave a stack by the register, and still have spares for the laptop lids and van windows people ask about once they see the first one up.

The same square, five hundred of them

Doubling the count does not double the bill. At 500 pieces the rate steps down from 24 cents to 22, so the identical 2.5 by 2.5 inch square becomes $1.38 each and the whole run is $687.50. The full ladder runs like this: 35 cents per square inch from 1 to 24 pieces, 30 cents from 25 to 49, 28 cents from 50 to 99, 26 cents from 100 to 249, 24 cents from 250 to 499, and 22 cents at 500. Every band is a step, not a slope, so a run of 249 is billed at 26 cents and a run of 250 at 24. If your count lands just under a step, add the extra pieces and see what the total does.

Glass, and what tends to go on it

Most of the orders that start with a shop address are for window and door work: the hours panel, the card logos by the handle, the name across the top pane, the small square that tells people which way the door swings. A die cut is useful here because the sticker stops where the artwork stops. A badge shaped like a shield is cut as a shield, and a wordmark is cut around the letters rather than sitting in a rectangle of clear film. On glass, seen against the street behind it, that outline is most of what the eye reads.

Twenty four point three miles, in a straight line

Rocky Point sits 24.3 miles east of the counter at 205 East Main Street in Huntington, measured as the crow flies rather than as a drive. That is one end of Suffolk County to very nearly the other, inside the Town of Brookhaven, ZIP 11778. Everything is printed and cut at that one Huntington address, so the figure is worth knowing mainly as a rough sense of how far the two counters sit apart.

Neighbours, and a tie at 2.4 miles

The interesting part of the local map is a tie. East Shoreham is 2.4 miles away and Sound Beach is also 2.4 miles away, the same figure to the tenth. Miller Place is 3.4, Ridge is 3.9, and Middle Island is 4.2. If you run one counter here and a second one in either of the two closest places, neither is nearer than the other and there is no reason to treat them as separate jobs. One file, one cut line, one order, and the decals for both doors arrive in the same box. The same holds out to Miller Place, Ridge and Middle Island, all of them inside 4.2 miles.

Artwork, and where the cut line falls

We cut to the outline you give us. A vector shape with a clean path is the simplest case, because the path is the cut. If what you have is a logo on a flat background, we build the outline around the artwork and offset it slightly so the cut does not shave the edge of a letter. Hours panels carry more small type than people expect, so check the smallest word at the size it will be printed rather than the size it looks on your screen. If a shape has an interior hole, the middle of a letter O or a gap inside a monogram, tell us whether you want that hole cut out or left as part of the sticker. Both are reasonable.

The ten piece threshold

An order qualifies at 10 or more pieces or at $10 of merchandise, whichever comes first. That is a threshold, not a price floor, so a single large decal that clears $10 on its own is a perfectly good order even though it is one piece. A shopkeeper ordering door and window work clears it without thinking about it, but it matters if you are testing one design before committing to a full run at a lower rate.

Who these orders usually come from

The owner of a single storefront, ordering the fixed set: hours, payment icons, the name for the top pane, and a small mark for the door. This is the order where the 100 to 249 band at 26 cents comes into play, because four designs across a few panes plus a spare set adds up to more pieces than people expect.

The person opening a second counter. Here the tie at 2.4 miles does real work. Two addresses, one artwork file, one order, and a count that pushes the whole thing into a cheaper band than either location would have reached alone.

The manager who would rather hold a drawer of replacements than place the same small order again and again. Buying at 250 or 500 is what makes the per piece figure worth looking at, and $375.00 or $687.50 covers a long stretch of that.

The owner who wants one thing tried before spending. One design, a handful of pieces at the top of the ladder at 35 cents per square inch, put in the window, looked at, and then ordered properly.

Questions we get asked

Can I put a Rocky Point storefront and a second counter in Sound Beach on one order and still hit the 250 piece rate? Yes. The band is set by the total piece count on the order, not by how many addresses the decals end up at. If the two locations together come to 250 pieces, the whole order is billed at 24 cents per square inch.

My Rocky Point door needs a 2.5 inch square but the window wants something much bigger, how does that price? Each design is priced on its own square inches, while the per square inch rate comes from the total piece count. So the window decal and the door square share a rate but not a price, because they do not cover the same area.

Is a Rocky Point order that stops at 249 pieces worth pushing to 250? Often, yes. At 249 you are billed at 26 cents per square inch and at 250 you are billed at 24, and the rate applies to the whole order rather than to the extra piece. Price it both ways before you decide.

Given that Rocky Point is 24.3 miles out, should I pick the order up or have it sent? That is yours to weigh. Free local pickup is at the Huntington counter, and shipping anywhere in the United States is the alternative. The 24.3 miles is a straight line figure, so check the actual route before assuming pickup is easier.

We only need decals for one Rocky Point window, is ten pieces really enough to order? Ten pieces is enough, and so is any smaller count that comes to $10 of merchandise. A one window job at 35 cents per square inch is a normal order, it simply sits at the top of the rate ladder rather than the bottom.
