What about T-Shirts in addition to the stickers???

Hey all,
I was just reviewing the price sheet for my sticker printer and I noticed that they can do t-shirts too. What do you all think? I think the price would be around $10 a shirt and I guess we'd use the same design. Not too bad eh? I'd have to find out if I can print varied sizes. Just an idea. Please reply. Thanks.

Alex

Price and finances depending, I'm interested...sounds cool!

Also, I'm still in for 2 stickers At one point, you were talking about having a static-cling sticker and a stick-on sticker (or even both together at the stated price)...just wondering, what wound up happening there? I'm okay with either one (or both); I'm just wondering.

RE: Stickers
Unfortunetely, all the stickers will be printed on white vinyl with sticky backs. It was just too complicated (and too expensive) to have them print batches of both static and sticky stickers. They will be just less than $2 each but I will post the exact price in a day or so. I can take checks, money orders, or probably even paypal, but I will check up on that.

RE: Shirts
They will only print a minimum of 50 shirts so I'll need around 40 people agreeing to commit to buying a shirt before I decide to have them printed. Those will be $11 or $12 shipped.

Okay, let me know if all this is ok.

Alex

Nate,
A few months ago, perhaps a half year earlier, we all conceived of the idea to print mercedesshop "diesel" stickers. I am not printing them and selling them for profit. Actually, I will be printing more than have been requested and I will absorb the cost of the surplus just in case people later on want to buy one. If there are any more questions, please ask. You might want to use the words "sticker" or "stickers" with the search function and you'll get a better idea of what we're doing.

Alex

I'm in for a T shirt size 2X

It would be cool if the design was on both sides, say, a big one on the back and a little one on the front.

I am still in for some stickers too, but can't remember how many. I think it was 3 or 4.

Thanks for doing this.

The stickers will be a definite go, but I will need to get back to you about the shirts. It's just an idea I wanted to throw out to you guys. Please don't be disappointed if they don't materialize. Thanks.

If the T-shirt idea turns out to be not financially viable, please consider ink-jet t-shirt transfers. That way we could just make our own shirts. Cost would be minimal, shipping problems minimal. Quality would not be quite as good, but with a little diesel oil smeared on it, nobody would notice.

So we've got people interested in buying a total of 12 shirts. I need people to commit to buying 28 more before I can submit an order. Anyone? Anyone?

I like the idea of big logo on the back
