Auction Paddle Pricing

NOTE:  Standard production times right now are 2.5 weeks (probably through mid November 2023).  That means needing paddles in LESS time that will likely incur a reasonable RUSH charge (not shipping). The website does NOT properly capture this and we will follow up with actual order costs after you place your order.  Nothing gets charged at time of order and you are under no obligation until we actually confirm all paddle-design and pricing details.  Thank you!

We are implementing an overly simplified pricing scheme here until we get our shop the way we want it. What you see here is for NEW customers. Existing customers will continue with your already-familiar pricing calculated based on your cumulative number of paddles purchased to date. You can purchase online for any of the shapes you see here. For others please call to order as you can always call to place an order instead. Think 'old school'. Call 866-667-2335 or use the "CONTACT US" link above to order.

Please note that we have uploaded only about 90 of our 300+ shapes. Hit us up and we'll quickly send you any shapes you are interested in.

Please see the pricing below for quantities between 100 and 350 paddles. Pricing is for ANY shape in those quantities, although there will be a slight additional cost for our more complex shapes that does NOT show up on the order details upon checkout. The website doesn't allow us to include all costs that vary based on shape/material where we need to charge a bit more.  Typically a more complex shape will cost slightly more due to getting fewer paddles out per sheet (the yield/sheet) and/or there being increased cutting time due to complexity.  Both of these add cost on our end. The other time they will be slightly more is when you want the entire paddle background to be a full fill color (like a black background fill).  Since we start with white plastic in almost all situations we need to print the background color on 1 or both sides which adds cost.  So if you wanted the paddle to be, say, "black" on both sides then that would make it a 2-sided print job. Otherwise one side would be black and the other side white (non printed).

So, on average, there is about a $0.35 added cost per paddle due to a lower yield/sheet and a $0.15 added cost per paddle for additional time to cut.  So total about $0.50 more per paddle for our more complex shapes.  Factor this in when figuring your costs please.  We do our best to be as transparent about our how we operate as we can.  Nobody likes surprises!  We know, we're just like you--

We'll let you know right away after you place your order if that shape is considered more complex. Generally, quantities <80 will be slightly MORE and quantities more than 400 may be LESS, all else being equal. Basic production turnaround is 2 weeks + shipping time (though peak times during about February 1-June 15 and Aug 15-Nov 15) this is typically 2.5 weeks). Rush shipping is ALWAYS available for up to same day production. Rush charges are NOT shipping and don't automatically get calculated on the order page, along with the other added costs above. Our rush charges are reasonable and typically don't exceed 15% in most cases.  Please see our FAQ regarding our different plastics. ALL plastics ARE reusable. All paddles are 1-piece including handle built-in.

We also fill in missing paddle numbers for ANY order when some go missing! The price per paddle to replace any missing paddles is the same as the cost per paddle when you ordered your previous set + $35 setup for layouts. Whether you fill-in 20 or 200 your price per paddle stays the same or goes down. That's it! NO-ONE out there does this but Better Bidders and it why we have the best auction paddle value you'll find.

September 2021: PLEASE NOTE: Recent INSANE plastic price increases (37-54% since COVID started) is having us needing to increase pricing here. For NEW customers only, expect an increase of 10% on the figures below, regardless of how the product detail webpage prices are reflected. (We are actively working on updating pricing to accurately reflect this change). We will make the adjustment to your order when we send over the official order confirmation which will include all included costs. Note that pricing for PlatinumPRO will NOT require an increase as we've already inventoried those paddles previously. Existing customers will continue to enjoy their locked-pricing based on previous cumulative paddle purchases.
