    I'm sure peterdalkey will see your post and have an answer but just in case not you could pm him http://touch.boards.ie/user/520785 I'd use the search on this forum as well because I think this has come up here before.

    It really depends on what kind of cardboard, corrugated or solid board, size, how much print etc etc. With any printed box you will face origination charges for printing plates and minimum quantities from a few thousand to 20-30K, depending on all the factors involved. What is the nearest well known brand/product that uses the type of box you seek and I will recommend some suppliers.

    Thanks for your reply. Well this is just an idea i was thinking of starting however I would not be looking for anywhere near 20-30k boxes. Obviously starting off i would be looking for only a few boxes but im not sure how this works so maybe this is not possible, basically a box less than the size of an a4 page, with about 12 holes for an item about an inch wide and 2 inch tall to fit into it.

    pm me when you firm up on a design and quantity needed and I will direct you as best I can. Just be aware that with custom size, print and die cut holes, you would be looking at thousands and not hundreds as a minimum quantity.

    What about looking at something like a cupcake box that holds 12?

    May not be exactly what you're thinking of but if it helps to get an idea off the ground.....
