It's finally time for me to get some stickers and buttons made up. Problem is, I know there's a ton of competition out there and it seems like everyone has their own preferred suppliers.

Obviously, I want a good deal.

But I also don't want to pay for crap, ya know? Like buttons that fall apart. Stickers that don't stick very well or wash out in the rain. I want quality vinyl stickers and quality buttons.

Who all do some of you recommend from personal experience? Who should I definitely avoid?

Much thanks in advance!!!

magic goat does not have 'real stickers' yet. but we used http://nolopins.com/# for our pins. they are very cheap ($20/100 pins). i havent recieved any complaints about the quality and weve been selling these things for like 6 months so they must be ok.

Nolopins and Diesel Fuel, definately.

Also, just FYI.. It's actually Aaron and Stackhouse of EDENPARK who own/run Nolopins. So.. Umm.. Yeah. You already know the guys, and they're freaking awesome.

Johnny and I are sitting and talking about it right now. He said that he's ordered thousands of pins from them now, and he's only had one actually fall apart. (And it was because the pin machine was screwy and Aaron had forewarned him that it might happen.)

Stackhouse's AIM - xohitsalldayx

Dear Dan,

Thanks for working with Nolopins.

XOXO,
Justine

i toally agree justine, they do rule. we needed the pins in less days than their minimum was. i asked them if we could get them in less days, they said absolutely. and we got em 2 days before the show we needed em for. i highly recomend them.

contagiousgraphics.net
both places i've gotten stickers with and have been excellent quality and service

for a lot of other merchandise i go with curlyandspike.com (buttons and loads of other stuff) the guys are super cool, do everything in a great time frame and all that stuff... plus they're cool and send out holiday cards and stuff like that when you order from them
