Just scored a KILLER deal on a new sign for the shop. Its freaking HUGE! 6 1/2 feet wide! lol. These are about 4-5 THOUSAND brand new. This one was new and never used, but its been sitting in a dusty shop getting moved around, so it had a couple small scraches that you'll never see hanging on a building. and the little switch broke, so it wouldnt work. Because of this the dude let it go for $40 bucks!!

Well 5 minutes of wiring, and it was lit up ;) deal of the centry!

Now comes the dilema. It says "1 hour photo" on it. hahaha

Anyone know of some shops in the oregon area that do custom fronts for these? or have any recommendations? Need to get one made asap :) Thanks!

i think most commercial sign companies should be able to help you out...one here in Bend is Carson Signs...maybe they are a good place to start as far as price shopping and such...hope that helps

i know so over priced, exactly why i didnt buy new haha. while you'd be way over 30, i get your drift, either way, you cant build it for 40! the bulbs alone for this thing are over 40 bucks a piece.

Nice deal there. Go to one of the aptly named "Signs" or "Signs 4 Less" or whatever they are called, I'm sure you have some near you. I'm sure that if they can't do it, they'd at least know where you can get it done.
