BYOAC Tokens!!! Now Accepting Pre-Orders.
Santoro:
OK here' s the deal. I need to go with Tokensdirect because they take AMEX Blue. I spoke to them and here is the 5000 lot price calculation:
2 custom dies @ $195 - $390
5000 Tokens @ $69 per thousand - $345 ($69 is the rate from Hoffmanmint - Tokensdirect was a lot more.)
Shipping & handling- $90
Total from TokensDirect: $825US
5000 Tokens /200 per lot = 25 lots
$825/25 lots = 33
$33 + $2 to cover credit card interest, packing, etc.
Total price, $35 plus shipping.
I started a new thread in the artwork forum for the design and also linked to it in the first post of this thread.

The MAME logo doesn't have anything to do with the MAME project, interestingly enough. It was created (by a woman!) by Exodus3D (don't know what her real name is). She's stated that she doesn't want the logo used for a commercial project, but small runs of stuff (T-Shirts, stuff like this) don't apply.
Do a Google for her, you should find her page.
Edit: I just did, and found it, but there's not much there.
Stingray:
I think this would qualify as a small run of stuff. Honestly you see the MAME logo everywhere. I can't imagine that anyone would have a problem with it used on this project.
FWIW I prefer Pixelhugger's logo. I'm pretty sure he'd be willing to modify it to better suit use on a token. Has anyone approched him about this yet?

You are correct, but I was referring to this page where they state the following
http://www.mame.net/features.html
The usage is free for non-commercial purposes (such as websites), for any commercial purpose (includes use in magazines), please ask a permission from the webmaster.
I tried to contact the webmaster but got no response.
Stingray, I agree this would probably qualify for a small run, but if you wanted to continually run these tokens and make a profit off them, then you might piss someone off, or might not.
