simply said having started up with the posters i'm thinking of a proper printshop for high volume things as well as buisness cards and such accepting bitcions only. for the record i voted yes so i could see the results

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

... delivery was cheap enough. I suspect this means smaller shops every couple of hundred miles.

Can you give an idea of "cheap enough" based on a certain number of a print size?

Could you print T-shirts?

I think "cheap enough" would be "at least as cheap as going to Staples"

I will have to get you a quote for t-shits if i rember correctly there is a way to do it, as far as staples pricing is concerned i need to make a trip there this week to see what their costs are, however knowing that i will have to ship my product cross country at points i can't promise cheaper than staples off hand but will definitly try

Staples wants ~250 for 500 color copies I can do color for .03btc print and black for .01btc/print
Shiping is roughly 1btc up to 50 prints conus and 4btc between 50 and 500, I'll put in more specific numbers when I get home.

Edit that's all 8.5x11 on standard paper I'll add more paper types and other sizes when get home.

If they're inexpensive enough, maybe you could give out a free sheet of stickers with every order? I don't have anything I need printed at the moment, but getting a sheet of https://en.bitcoin.it/img/bc_logo_135.png or something to stick to random things would be kinda cool.

I'll have to order some sheets and do some test prints, Sticker sheets on their own don't weigh much and could be shipped in a standard large envelope, what size(s) and shape(s) would people be interested in and what patterns (bitcoin circles and personalized QR stickers are the two that come to mind right away)
