I have a small 3d printer (roughly 4" cubed), willing to do samples for cost + shipping... be around $10 shipped, depending...

The last I looked at RP it was still stone age, I don't know what is possible now. What materials can you print, how strong are they? I have something on occasion I probably should look into printing for. Have any sample items to show us?

I sell lots of my GoPro mount components to replace 3D printed parts.

Many low end machines won’t print engineering grade materials and the low end materials (PLA particularly) do not tolerate vibration so applicable to static and non-stressed items only.

My samples would be toy stuff. Have something in mind? I could try and find stl file (unless you have one) and print you a freebie for shipping?

I'm thinking a carburetor part or maybe a measuring device. I don't have anything particular in mind at the moment, but both of those have occurred to me.
