This reminds me of stylate.com which was selling a logo and domain together for a reasonable price (hundreds instead of thousands). I'm not sure why the service ever shut down.

Re: Logo Pizza: Hot and ready logos for sale
#152This is a great idea! I'd actually sign up for a mailing list to get notified when new logos are added. I'm aware of products like fiverr and 99Designs, but I'm worried about sinking a bunch of money into them only to get crap back. I like being able to view the logos and simply browse without any commitment.
You get what you pay for. Ayone who'd do a logo for $5 really hasn't got the experience / talent to do that. Hire a graphic designer just as you know you should.
I've gotten great results several times for $5, as well as for higher priced 'competitions' on 99designs. I'd never go back to the 'pick a designer and hope they're not a dud before having sunk 1000's in them'. Oh and not a single one will work from where someone else left off, so you get to start all over again. Ugh.

#153Wouldn't it make more sense that the price would go down as more are purchased, as the most popular logos are already taken? Is someone really going to pay $1000 for 'Mr. Grin'
After spending much time among entrepreneurs I find that there are very few with a "business" mind. Great idea, horrible model. This pricing model is so far out of left field that I had to do some research to see if it's ever been successful. It hasn't. Although https://github.com/metafizzy is kinda interesting (what this websites UI is based off of)

I'm sorry but you seem to be one of them. Think outside the box please.

You get the illustrator files if you buy the logo, otherwise you only have a thumbnail.
These thumbnails are clean enough to be loaded into Illustrator and recaptured using the vectorize tool. Not sure about Inkscape. How much would people pay for such tracing do you think?
Probably not enough to cover the eventual copyright infringement lawsuits.

#156http://www.brandcrowd.com/ has more selection and doesn't increase the price for every logo sold.

Except nobody's going to pay nearly $1,000 for the leftovers, so there is essentially a ceiling on the number of sales that will happen. Let's say the last logo sells for $400 (it's currently stopped at $320, so I don't think that's unreasonable); that's only $2,200 in total revenue for 50 logos.
It was at $360 when I found it, and they've sold two in the last 10 minutes. Up to $420 now.
Two hours later, now at $500, increasing by $20 per logo now.

I've had the best luck with Contests on Freelancer. I usually drop $25-$50 per piece of art I need (logos, mascots, icon sets) and usually get around ~30 submissions, of which at least half are solid quality. You just pick your favorite and that's the one you get for the price.

it increases by $20/logo sold
I believe they reduced this from $40 to $20. Correct me if I'm wrong here.
That does seem to be the case. It actually could be an interesting sales move. If the price would rise linearly, the saturation point in which the logos become "too expensive" would occur faster in sales. Gently lowering the additional value (from 40 to 20 and i assume from 20 to 10) would let the saturation point occur later, thus having more sales in total.
Re: Logo Pizza: Hot and ready logos for sale
#160Brilliant! However, they are quite pricey at 500$. I always thought making a custom logo would be expensive, but buying a ready made one could be much cheaper, any thoughts regarding the pricing?
