Engraving cost depends on four things: the material (metal, wood, glass, leather, or acrylic), the size of the area being engraved, the amount of text or artwork, and the quantity. As a starting point, engraving an item you bring in runs $17.50 for the first six letters on items valued under $100, or $25 for items over $100, then $0.45 per additional letter; wood and watches start at $27 for the first six letters. A single pet tag and a run of fifty award plates are still very different jobs, so we price each project individually and give you an exact price before any work starts — tell us what you're engraving through our quote form or bring the item by the shop.
Laser engraving is priced by setup and machine time: how complex the artwork is, how large the engraved area is, the material being marked, and how many pieces you need. One-off items carry the artwork setup once; larger runs spread it across the order. Because those variables swing widely, we quote each laser job individually — send your artwork and item details and we'll return a firm number.
Wood, glass, acrylic, leather, and many metals all take laser engraving well — which covers most awards, gifts, plaques, and signage pieces. Results vary by surface and coating, so if you're unsure about a specific item, ask before you buy it. We're glad to look at anything you bring in and tell you honestly whether laser or diamond-drag will give the better result.
Laser engraving marks the surface with focused light — best for fine detail, small text, and logos across wood, glass, acrylic, leather, and metal. Diamond-drag engraving cuts into metal with a diamond-tipped stylus, producing the classic bright-line look on award plates, pens, and medals. We run both machines in our Camarillo shop and choose the method that suits your item, or explain the trade-offs when either would work.
The average cost to have something embroidered depends mostly on stitch count — how large and detailed your design is — plus the garment itself, the number of pieces, and a one-time digitizing step that converts your logo into a stitch file. Embroidery starts at $15.50 and moves up with size and stitch count, so a small left-chest logo on twenty polos prices very differently than one large jacket back. Send your logo and quantities and we'll quote it exactly.
Three steps: send your logo through our quote form (any common file type), tell us what you'd like it stitched on and how many pieces, and approve the setup before we run the order. We prepare artwork for thread in-house, including digitizing. If all you have is a rough version of your logo, our artwork team can get it stitch-ready first.
Choose embroidery for durability and a professional look on polos, hats, jackets, and bags — stitched logos survive years of wear and washing. Screen printing suits large, colorful designs on t-shirts and bigger runs where a soft, flat finish matters. Many teams use both across different pieces. Tell us how the items will be used and we'll recommend the right method for each — and show you stitched samples at the counter.
Hats, polos, jackets, aprons, bags, blankets, and most garments that hold a hoop — plus tackle twill for varsity-style lettering on team wear. If you're supplying your own items, contact us before purchasing so we can confirm they'll run properly on our machines; some materials and seam placements don't cooperate. For garment options in team and business styles, start with our apparel page.
Trophy cost depends on the style (column builds, resin figures, cups, acrylics), the height, the number of engraved plates, and the order size — forty participation trophies for a league price differently per piece than one perpetual cup. Rather than guessing from a chart, tell us your event, headcount, and budget range, and we'll suggest options that fit and quote the exact total.
Plaques start at $17.99, which includes three lines of engraving; beyond that, additional letters run $0.45 each, and price rises with the size of the plaque. Board material (wood, acrylic, or metal-faced), whether text is engraved directly or on a mounted plate, and how much logo or artwork detail is involved all factor in, and quantity matters too — one retirement plaque is a different order than a perpetual plaque with ten annual plates. Bring us your wording and occasion and we'll price the styles side by side.
Most plaques carry four elements: the recipient's name, the achievement or occasion, the date, and a short line from the giver — a thank-you, a milestone, a team signature. Keep it brief; engraving reads best with room to breathe. We help with layout and phrasing on every order, and common formats exist for retirement, appreciation, and memorial pieces if you'd like a starting point.
Yes — full-league orders are a regular part of our work: trophies by division, engraved medals by event, and coach gifts coordinated in one order. Send us your roster or headcount and your ceremony date, and we'll organize the list so every name is spelled right and boxed by team. Call the shop to talk through your season's schedule.
Use the quote form on this site — it asks for your name, contact details, the service you need, quantity, the date you need it by, and an optional artwork upload. Send it any time, day or night, and we follow up during business hours (Mon–Fri 9am–5pm). Prefer to talk it through? Call (805) 484-6825 or stop by 1390 Flynn Rd, Suite B in Camarillo.
Vector files (AI, EPS, PDF, SVG) are ideal because they scale cleanly for engraving, embroidery digitizing, and print. A sharp, high-resolution PNG or JPG usually works too. If all you have is a business card or a photo of an old sign, don't let that stop you — our artwork and graphic design service redraws and prepares files for whichever process your job needs.
Timelines depend on the service, the quantity, and what's already in our production queue, but as a general guide: trophies typically run 3–5 business days, embroidery 7–10 days (sometimes faster depending on the season), screen printing around two weeks, and DTF printing 24 hours or less. Need it sooner? Rush service is available — often same day depending on the item and quantity — starting at $25. Include your deadline in the quote form and we'll tell you plainly whether it's workable; for time-sensitive requests, calling the shop first is the fastest route.

Yes. Rush service is available and same-day is sometimes possible depending on the item and quantity, starting at $25. Tell us your deadline up front — for time-sensitive jobs, calling the shop first is the fastest way to confirm what's workable.
Screen printing is priced by the number of ink colors in your design and the quantity of shirts — more colors mean more screens, and larger runs bring the per-shirt price down. Send your artwork and quantities and we'll quote the exact cost.
DTF (direct-to-film) printing is full-color with no minimum, priced mainly by print size and quantity. It's cost-effective for small runs and detailed, multi-color artwork, and most jobs are ready in 24 hours or less — send your design for an exact price.
We're based in Camarillo and serve customers across Ventura County, including Oxnard, Thousand Oaks, Newbury Park, Moorpark, Santa Paula, Ventura, Westlake Village, and Ojai.
Yes. Once we prepare and digitize your logo, we keep the file so reorders are quick and consistent — no need to set up the artwork again.
We work to match your brand or team colors as closely as each process allows. Share your color references (a PMS number is ideal) and we'll get as close as the material and method permit, and tell you honestly where an exact match isn't possible.
