Many sites offer the Free Shipping, but you just have to see if you are still getting a good offer. Free doesn’t always mean you are getting a discount or really anything free for that matter. I would suggest getting a quote from different sites and seeing what the bottom line is going to be.

The resources that they have all similar to the button templates we offer online to download and we also offer videos of how to make the various buttons. I think all of this information is on a CD that they offer.

As for any software, there is really only one. Badge-a-Minit’s Button Builder Pro software only works with 1-1/4″, 2-1/4″ and 3″ button sizes. If you have no clue as to how to size your buttons this is a good tool.

When you are looking at online sources, you may want to look at the prices with shipping and the “free” shipping offers still. Proximity is another thing to look at. How long will it take for an order to get to you? Where will the items ship from?

Hope this information helps with your decisions.

Take Care,

I will look into the address on squidoo too.

Anyway, I left a comment on the squidoo lens but want to make sure you see it. I have been researching button machines online and found a site that I like because they don’t charge shipping and have lots of good resources. The site is American Button Machines:

American Button Machines

Your products and theirs appear to me to be very similar. Can you tell me what the differences are, and give me any advice as to what I should be looking for in an online source of button machines?

My email is dallaslivemusicnow@gmail.com. Any info you have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
