Supporting article for scoreboard pricing - inclusions etc.

This is the "supporting article" for our previous Solid Scoreboard Costs page.

Video-style electronic scoreboards are Entertaining & fantastic for generating an advertising revenue

All scoreboard builds are different - referred pricing are AUD$ and include GST.

As of early 2024 in Victoria, Australia

Can you buy cheaper scoreboards? Yes!

If you look in the right places you could save up to 50%. Who doesn't know someone with contacts in China!

We suggest looking at long-term "value" instead of today's "price".

Is it good value when you save 30% on day 1, but the screen dies in 3-4 years?

Is it good value when you can't contact the scoreboard supplier for parts (as the business has closed)?

Is it good value when the scoreboard company does not pay support staff to work on weekends?

Can you buy more expensive scoreboards? Yes.

Scoreboards at the major venues, ie. MCG, will cost more than double, or triple!

LED displays are not all the same. They are designed and built to a formula to suit a purpose.
A good "local club" scoreboard screen is not the cheapest, and not the dearest.
Solid's LED scoreboard formula is a work of art - constantly evolving for over a decade, with the latest technology.

Unique to Solid Scoreboards...  FIXED PRICING!

With Solid's extensive experience building scoreboards, we can FIX pricing (Victorian sites only).
Zero $$$ surprises.
BE wary. Many scoreboard quotations are filled with "fuzzy" clauses. We have witnessed too many horror stories where the cheaper quote has spiraled much higher! 


 

When researching scoreboards be aware of the older "digit-style" scoreboards.

This is NOT what Solid supplies.
"Digit scoreboards" are ancient technology & terrible value-for-money.
