** Edit:
I am willing to negotiate a trade for a duct-tape item instead of you having to pay (if money is tight). Please be reasonable, though! Trades can be anything from an illustration sketch, commission, your own crafty item, subscription, whatever! As long as the value of the item(s) in question are equal to the amount of work done on my side.
** END EDIT

SO, I have decided I am going to have a sort of commission session (first time I've ever done any sort of paid service o3o) involving making wallets, cheque books, etc out of DUCT TAPE, like you see here: fav.me/d2j2ewn

IF you are interested in getting one, send me a note titled DUCT TAPE with info about what you want and stuff. Below will be the pricing and availability information c:

Regular materials I use are Paper/Cardstock if needed for rigid bases, Protective Card Sleeves for picture slots (like those you would find holding Pokemon cards), and, of course, Duct Tape. If need be, I could use other materials, such as thread, string, wire, etc. Note that these are completely customizable and I will try to finish the item(s) to the closest of the description/design given I can

For tl:dr on the price list and you just want a quick wallet, they cost 10-15 dollars for a simple single-fold, and 15-20 or so for a simple double-fold. For exact pricing info, read on!


Pricing


Pricing is based on complexity of the item, size, time it takes to create, etc, and materials used. Certain colors of duct tape are more expensive than others (eg, tye dye or camouflage is way more expensive than base colors, and base colors are more expensive than standard grey/silver duct tape). If you wish to provide your own roll(s) of duct tape, be my guest! You'd get a discount on the overall price (eg if the duct tape cost 5 dollars and you are willing to let me keep it, you'd get an equivalent discount).

Note that the following pricing list is subject to change, and prices can be negotiated on an individual basis. Base costs are based on solid color duct tape.

Wallets
Wallets come in single or double folds, and default to one main bill pocket, and a card/picture slot per side.
- Single-fold: $10 (see fav.me/d2j2ewn)
Single fold comes with 1 card slot, and one picture slot by default
- Double-fold: $15 US
Double-folds come with 2 card slots and one picture slot by default

Chequebooks
Chequebooks are a little like wallets but are a tad bit bigger, and I will use a card base to make them more rigid, so they don't flop while you are writing a cheque.
- Single-fold: $13 US
Comes with one cheque-stack slot, one card slot and one picture slot
- Double-fold: $20 US
Comes with one cheque-stack slot, 3 card slots, one picture slot, and a loop to hold a pen

Picture-Wallets
Picture-wallets are loaded full of picture-slots that you can flip like a book, and you can use both sides of a 'page' to hold a picture. Isn't equipped to hold money or cards by itself
- Single-fold: $15 US
- Combine with a regular wallet: $20 US single, $25 US double

Add-ons
You can add more pockets or whatever to the above items!
- Extra card slot: +$1 US
- Extra picture slot: +$2 US
- Chain loop/Pen loop: +$1 US
- Change pocket: +$3 US

More
I could do more things! I just can't think of anything else. If you have some other idea of something I could make with tape, big or small, throw it at me! If I think I can do it, we can negotiate costs.

Colors
Currently I have Silver, Red, Black, Cyan, Orange, Yellow, Purple, Pink, Tan, Green, Navy, White, Tye-Dye Blue, Tye-Dye Red, and Camo.
The above prices are based on solid color duct tape, which is the cheapest other than plain silver/gray. A patterned duct tape will cost 1-2 dollars extra, since they are more expensive (and come in smaller rolls, too). If you want t a color I don't have, I'd have to order it or find it in a store, and it might take a while to get here if I have to order it. Note that I may not be able to find the exact color you want.

Other Materials
I can add whatever else to the wallet if it is possible. The costs of those materials will obviously vary, and of course if you provide the materials, you need not worry about this!

Designs
I can add carved designs to your wallet, whether its a unique border, a full image on the front, little icons on the pockets, whatever. Depending on what you want and how complex the design is, this would cost an extra 5-15 dollars. It would cost a little bit less if you provide the design(s) too, otherwise, I'd have to get Xeraki to design me one for you.
Example: (top)

Shipping
Shipping is added on to the cost. So if you live in a far away land, this might not be good news for you :c but if you live in US or Canada (I live in Canada), it'll be a lot easier.

Just note me with the subject 'DUCT TAPE' and describe what you want. We will discuss pricing and whether or not materials are provided, etc, and I will provide my paypal info (I can accept money-order or cash as well, but I live in Canada and I won't start until I receive payment. Also I can't start if you provide materials until it gets here xD), and be sure to provide your shipping address as well!
