[QUOTE="Sacrosanct, post: 9673254, member: 15700"] Not to mention the costs for installing utilities, like water and power and sewage. That's not cheap. I know, I've been there ;) Even if they got the land cheap, they will be spending a ton of money to get it set up to be a printing shop. Last I checked, about $15 per foot per wire to run electrical wire, $200 a foot to run a water line, and roughly $10,000 for a septic tank. I don't know if they are already connected to the grid, but if so, the land is probably not as cheap as more remote land. So yeah, between that and fees and building costs, they could be looking at a few hundred thousand just to get ready for a place to put a printer set up. I'm sure they've run their numbers, so maybe they got a good deal and/or found a place to mitigate most of these costs. [/QUOTE]
