Default Asking your opinion again.

When I moved into my house a year ago one of the 1st things I did was painted my mail box. It's a flag that wraps around it at an angle (I'll get a pic later). Well the next day after I put it out finished my post man approced me about painting a bunch of them for him. And haven't really seen him or discussed it since.

Well Friday I was at my car when he was delivering and stoped to talk to me about it. Suggestions like ebay came up for reselling them. I told him I didn't really have much time to do a bunch but if he droped off some I could paint them up and see what happens.

My question.

Think this is stupid or something that people will buy? I was going to use some automotive paint for them with clear finishes like you would a car. mine was sprayed with rattle cans that i got on sale.

I'll get a pic of mine at lunch and post it up.

paint him up 10 for a price...
Then if he sells them, you can talk about doing more and what the split will be...

Depends on how you're gonna do it. Some designs are going to be more profitable than others.

around here there are custom school bus boxes for busdrivers, I have seen hot rods, japanese flags, american flags, bass and even polished chrome. People spend $$$$ on "novelty" items, I say go for it if anything you may make a nitche market for yourself

My box.
I made my name torn at the edges so it may look a little odd or mangled(sp).
Sorry for the large pic.
