Title: Cheapest/best place to get a marquee printed in the UK?
Post by: slapaham on February 15, 2010, 04:20:21 pm

Noticed that Gremlin Solutions do them but they aren't usually the cheapest...

I'm looking for a long thin marquee with nice bright, vivid colour and crisp graphics which is sturdy. I will be custom designing it - anyone know anywhere good in the UK and reasonably priced?

There's some good info here:

Thanks for that... I'm guessing that's Monkeyman - or whatever his name is? ;D

Didn't know he did marquees as well...(hang on a second - best read through the thread first!) I need some custom panels printed as well and was going to go to him as I'd heard good things - perhaps I can kill 2 birds with 1 stone if he does both! ;)

Get a price of Nigel @ arcadestickers.co.uk. He did my Neo Geo CPO and aryssoR's Mushi Futari CPO. They were both cheap and decent quality. I imagine he would do marquees too.

Nigel does indeed do marquees, on a nice backlight-able material. As Franco says, he's cheap and the quality is great.
