I know Laura. I just put a google search in and within a couple of pages there it was, though I only looked briefly so there might be 'Easy Jet' type addons somewhere......I suspect postage will be £50.00 :-)

It all depends on the image you wish to apply. You can get banner material and apply 'banner vinyl' which is more flexible and less likely to 'crack' than standard sign vinyl. Alternatively they can be eco solvent printed (much better than banner vinyl IMO)on something like a versacamm which is available in 762mm print width up to whatever width machine you can afford.

What prices are you seeing on FB?

That red looks woven on so like you say probably bought in like that. The rest you could do with black vinyl and press it in sections I suppose. Not a massive job but probably a bit hard to maneuver on the press.
'Undefeated' looks kinda wonky! ;)

Looks like a cheap bought in flag and the lettering applied in vinyl......cheap and practical for it's purpose but not a 'good' quality flag.
