Memorial Makers – Excellence at a Fair Price
A PlaqueMaker customer from the UK, Dann has searched for an economical source for the markers, and finds that PlaqueMaker’s price for a single marker is less than a third what he would have been charged by a local establishment in his country (a little over $200 US versus $750 US). He also discovers PlaqueMaker’s quantity discount on custom products, so when he orders several markers, the price drops even more.
