A lot of the cost in making custom things like this is the inital setting up of the printer/cutter/manufature machine. Thats why costs tend to go down with bulk orders, that inital setup is spread out. So if someone was able to order 1 at $40, but mayhaps 10 would only be $200, then it would make sense for one person to order then sell them for $20 each.

Also, I know one local place that we goto that does this sort of thing dosn't like making just one, they prefer to run things in batches.

I've been looking into window clings, much like you see with college names.
