Love this item, but the price is far beyond my budget for something like this. I wouldn't spend a penny more than $100 and that would still be a bit much.

I like this idea, but the estimated price is SO EXPENSIVE!

Love it but WAY too pricey. I could make this myself for about $20

Casey, you may be able to purchase the materials for under $50, but the price of this item is for the custom typography and the labor required to build it from scratch from the reclaimed wood.

Very creative and well executed! The price is a little high, but so is most custom artwork.

Definitely could make this myself for much less. Cool Idea though.

This isn't unlike buying a piece of art like a watercolor or oil painting. Of course you can buy the canvas and paint for MUCH less and do it yourself. The $ is for the artistry and the lettering is really artful.

I think hand-made, well crafted board like this -- custom designed, remember - is worth the price. Especially if you request the magnetic chalk paint! Would definitely buy.

Thank you all for the great feedback that's already coming in for this item. We love that you support that it's handmade of reclaimed wood by skilled artists! Keep in mind that finding perfect reclaimed wood to reflect the look and feel the artists achieve with this piece can be tricky. The cost of the materials is factored into the estimated price. The piece is not only hand-built, but also hand-lettered. Keep the questions and comments rolling in and let us know whether your on board for this item's induction to our lineup!

I understand that the price is high because of what a nice handmade product this is, but I just think I would never buy this item for the listed price. I don't think many people would. They might think it's cool but never buy it. Just my opinion.

Very cool. The idea of personalized chalkboards is not only ingenious, but rustic and charming too. It's a playful gift given at a baby shower, a stylish way to exhibit specials at a restaurant, and an original, custom piece of art in your own home. I think the price is right for what it is. PS-My wedding is at a ranch in October, is it possible to have one made by then?

My only complaint is the price. I mean, chalkboard paint is a bit pricey, but the wood is reclaimed and slate isn't the most expensive thing ever....

Love that they're using reclaimed wood, but "rustic" isn't my or any of my friends'/familys' style. Plus, way too expensive.

i love this, but would NEVER buy it until the price came way down! it can't be that hard to either do this yourself or find someone to do it for you for like 1/3 of the price.

Fail on so many levels.. price is astronomical and one can make one or hire someone to make one for a fraction of the price.

A bit pricey but because it's personalized so beautifully, I'll probably buy one of these then figure out where I'm going to display it.

William
Idea is great but price is to steep I would have put this in the 50-75 US Dollar range
Alexandra
Very cool but VERY expensive...
Laurie
I, for one have NEVER spent 250.00 on a shower gift. Way out of mine, and everyone I know price range. Piece of slate mounted in a recycled frame sans glass and some free hand or stenciled paint, probably cost about 20.00. Ridiculous price.
tina
This is nicely done.. wish the price was less.. but I would definitely put this on my wish list!
denise
very nice this is way too expensive. definately needs price adjustment

Love it but too much $$$
