Hand lettering or Vinyl??

[SignManiac]

I don't normally post ugly signs, but I have to wonder why somebody would choose to hand paint a sign like this when they sell vinyl lettering? I would think that vinyl would have looked better? You think this might be a temporary sign for their business? A pinstriping buddy of mine spotted it on the way out of town and sent this photo to me. I bet I have a dozen shops to compete with in our little hamlet!

spend $1 in paint or $6 in vinyl - the savings are spectacular!

That one went to lowest bidder

I dont think its $6 in vinyl...

My money is on them using those big *** markers on it. Its all about making a great first impression. LOL

It is vinyl, they are going for that "hipster" crafty look.....

Maybe that tried vinyl and it failed the first time on that high quality plywood substrate. I'd never even attempt it.

Wonders why they bothered

Maybe it is a subliminal tie-in to their line of "Farm-2-U-Products" --> fresh manure....

I can only hope I don't have to bid against them.

It is all in the presentation..

Now does the lettering look bad....Mosh want an XL.

I must succumb to my competition once and for all!

Looks like he purchased one of our Redneck Sign Kits http://www.signsforspokane.com/blog/bid/73425/DIY-Signs-The-Deluxe-Redneck-Sign-Kit

We made these up for prospects that think we're too expensive

I dunno - calling them your competition may be a little bit of a stretch. Anybody who uses them after seeing that sign is probably a customer you didn't want anyhow.

I'm thinking they had to hand-paint the sign because their cricut cutter could only do 12" x 12" sections

it's a hand lettered/painted sign, a craft that is getting lost in our modern world
