What is Stickier?

Stickier is a marketplace for physical vinyl stickers featuring logos and designs from startups, tech companies, and VC firms.

Every sticker on our platform is a real, premium die-cut vinyl sticker (2-3.5" width) that gets printed and shipped to you. These are collectible items you can stick on your laptop, water bottle, or display in your collection.

Our unique pricing model means sticker prices change based on demand—popular stickers cost more, while less popular ones are more affordable. You can also resell stickers you own through our marketplace.

Why Build a Sticker Collection?

It's not just about the vinyl. It's about what it represents.

💪

Rep Your Favorites

Your collection reflects the companies you believe in. Build a collection that tells your story.

📈

Track the Hype

Who's hot, who's not. Your sticker collection is a real-time map of tech culture.

🎯

Collect First

New stickers start at $1. Popular ones cost more. The earlier you collect, the more affordable.

🔄

Stay Flexible

Ship Later keeps your options open. Collect now, decide later whether to keep or trade.

Stickers have always been the universal language of tech culture. We're building a marketplace where collecting them finally makes sense.

What You Own

When you buy a sticker, you own a real physical vinyl sticker. Every sticker is backed by our inventory and printing capacity.

Ship Later (Recommended): Your sticker is held in your collection. Trade it on the marketplace, gift it to a friend, or request physical delivery whenever you want.

Ship Now: We print and ship your sticker immediately. You receive the physical product.

🔒 Physical Guarantee: Every sticker in your collection is backed by real vinyl. Request delivery anytime within 365 days—or trade it to another collector. Either way, a sticker gets printed and shipped.

Selling Stickers

Own stickers you want to sell? We handle everything through our consignment model.

1

List Your Sticker

Select stickers from your collection and list them for sale. You can only sell stickers you originally bought on Stickier.

2

We Set the Price

As your consignment agent, we determine the sale price based on current market demand. You can set a reserve (minimum) price.

3

We Print, Ship & Pay You

We handle everything: print a fresh sticker, ship to the buyer, and deposit your earnings. Zero fulfillment hassle.

Why We Print Fresh Stickers for Buyers

Vinyl stickers are single-use products—once applied, the adhesive backing is consumed and cannot be reused. To ensure every buyer receives a sticker with full "sticky ability," we print a fresh new sticker for each resale.

This also means sellers never need to handle shipping. We manage all fulfillment on your behalf, so you can focus on collecting and selling without logistics headaches.

How Ownership Works

  • Sell what you own: Own 5 stickers? You can sell up to 5. When you sell one, ownership transfers to the buyer—you now own 4. Want it back? Just buy it again.
  • Unlimited reselling: Stickers can change hands forever. You sell to Alice, Alice sells to Bob, Bob sells back to you… each owner can resell when they're ready.
  • Why we reprint: Even though you may have the physical sticker, when you sell we print a fresh one for the buyer. This ensures every buyer gets a pristine sticker with full adhesive.

Dynamic Pricing

Sticker prices respond to market sentiment in real-time. More buyers push prices up. Sellers and shorters push prices down. Inactive stickers drift back to $1.

$1$$Time / Activitybaseline
Price reflects real-time sentiment

How It Works

Every sticker has a hype score that determines its price. Buying activity pushes prices up. Shorting and listing pressure push prices down. Inactive stickers drift back toward $1.00.

Buy = Price goes UP
Each purchase signals demand and increases the hype score
Short = Price goes DOWN
Shorting is a bearish signal that decreases the hype score
No activity = Drift to $1
Inactive stickers slowly return to the $1 baseline over time
💡 What this means for you

Prices reflect real hype. Hot stickers cost more. Stickers people are shorting cost less. $1.00 means "no one cares"—below $1 means people are actively bearish.

Above $1
Bullish
More buyers than sellers
$1.00
Neutral
No strong signal either way
Below $1
Bearish
Active shorting or sell pressure

Why Dynamic Pricing?

  • Reflects real sentiment
    Prices show what the market actually thinks right now
  • Rewards early believers
    Buy before the hype and your stickers appreciate
  • Punishes overhype
    Shorts can push down overpriced stickers
  • Self-correcting
    Forgotten stickers drift back to $1 baseline

Key Details

Starting price: Every new sticker begins at $1.00

Floor price: Stickers can go as low as $0.01 if heavily shorted

No ceiling: Popular stickers can climb indefinitely based on demand

Slippage: Large orders move the price as they execute—each successive sticker costs slightly more (buying) or less (shorting)

🐻

Bear Flex (Shorting)

The "Called It" Edition

Think a sticker is overpriced? Express your opinion with a Bear Flex! Pay the current price and receive a special "CALLED IT" edition of the sticker—a cosmetic collectible showing you made the call.

Shorting has a strong impact on price. Each short decreases the hype score significantly, pushing the sticker price down. The more you short, the cheaper each successive short becomes (reverse slippage).

Bear Flex stickers are collectible keepsakes. They're not for resale—just for bragging rights.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these real physical stickers?
Yes! Every sticker is a premium die-cut vinyl sticker (2-3.5" width) that gets printed and shipped to you. These are real collectibles you can use or display.
How long does shipping take?
We print and ship within 24 hours of your order (for Ship Now). Standard delivery is 3-5 business days within the US, 7-14 days internationally.
Can I resell stickers I bought?
Yes! You can sell any sticker you own. When you sell, that unit transfers to the buyer (we print a fresh one for them). They can then resell it, and so on—stickers can change hands unlimited times. You could even buy the same sticker back later and sell it again!
Do sellers see my address?
Never. When you buy from another user, Stickier fulfills the order with a fresh reprint. The seller never receives your personal information, ensuring complete privacy for both parties.
Why do prices change?
Prices update based on demand—popular stickers cost more, like limited-edition sneakers or trading cards. When more people buy, prices go up. When people sell, prices go down.
What's the difference between Ship Now and Ship Later?
Ship Now prints and ships your sticker within 24 hours (20% resale fee). Ship Later holds your order for up to 365 days (5% resale fee)—you decide when to ship it, or resell it on the marketplace. At day 365, we automatically print and ship any remaining orders to you.
What happens at day 365 if I haven't sold or requested my sticker?
At the 365-day mark, we automatically print and ship your sticker to your registered address. Once delivered, it becomes a "physical" holding and the resale fee increases from 5% to 20%. We'll send reminders before this happens so you can sell or request delivery on your terms.
Why does the resale fee change from 5% to 20% after shipping?
The 5% fee applies to "Ship Later" stickers that haven't been shipped yet—we're just transferring ownership. Once a physical sticker is printed and shipped (either by your request or the 365-day auto-ship), the 20% fee covers the additional fulfillment costs involved in reselling physical goods.
What happens if I sell a Ship Later sticker?
We print and ship a fresh sticker directly to the buyer—you never touch anything. The $1.99 shipping fee you originally paid covers fulfillment to whoever ends up receiving it (you or a buyer).
Do I need to ship stickers when I sell?
No! We handle all fulfillment for you. When your sticker sells, we print a fresh one and ship it directly to the buyer. You never touch packaging, labels, or postage—just list and get paid.
Are these official company stickers?
These are fan-made collectible stickers featuring company logos and designs. They are not official merchandise from the companies themselves.
How do refunds work?
Since prices fluctuate, we don't offer traditional refunds. However, you can always sell your sticker back on the marketplace at the current market price.
Why can I only sell stickers bought on Stickier?
We track ownership on our platform to ensure authenticity. When you buy, we record that unit as yours. When you sell, ownership transfers to the buyer. This lets us handle all fulfillment (printing + shipping) seamlessly without you touching a thing.
Is this like trading stocks?
No—you're buying and selling physical stickers, not securities. Think of it like trading cards or collectibles with dynamic pricing. There's no investment advice or promises of returns.
