I have looked at these... a couple of people sell them on eBay... going rate £15 - 20... look great..... Conde system's have a vid on how they are done etc... they would be a top seller in a shop but a niche online... not something joe bloggs would search for I doubt...

I remember looking at these Justin ...................... I think the only thing that put me off was the price to be honest.

The finish looks really good, but can they be sold with a mark-up to make a profit?

An alternative could be Themagictouch's ORD transfer papers. Can be used on any glass or acrylic without coating.
I've had some sample sheets to try out, tried a couple but not got it quite right due a blotching effect. However, I'm not giving up on it as they would be only a fraction of the cost of the Sublicrylic items to produce.

Is this the one you mean Jimbo?
Do the transfer papers need to be printed with a laser printer ????

Hi Adam
Yes, that's the one. they are laser printed. As I said I've only had a couple of attempts but will persevere as the glass/acrylic items can be bought for £1.75 and up from trophy & award suppliers.

ahhhhhhhhhh - would work out a little more expensive for me then as I have 4 printers on the go at the moment ................ all inkjet!

what about old, standard way of printing on acrylic? All you need is normal inkjet. and cold laminator this way you can produce much biger and what most importent much cheaper acrylic art
