Ok we have enough people willing to purchase a BLACK xjtalk t-shirt. I know, I know, I'd rather have something other than black, but that's because I have a bad habit of scratching my head a lot! :rotfl2:

So let's discuss the design.

Simple first...

Go with this design, or change it?

** IF YOU ARE WILLING TO BUY THIS SHIRT ANSWER THE POLL WITH YOUR SIZE. IF YOU ARE NOT WILLING TO BUY THIS SHIRT SELECT NO.

I like it! Looks great and I like the way the red stand out against the white Cherokee.

We are at 4 shirts. When we get to 6 I'll give you guys a price per shirt and what it will be at 12, 24, etc...

I think you'll be amazed at how quickly the price drops.

BTW, they are (or should be) available in children and woman sizes!

These are $28 each, that drops to around $21 if we order 6 and I think it drops to about $17 for 12, and $14 for 24. So the more people we get to order the cheaper it gets. I DO NOT KNOW how much it will cost me to ship it to you yet!!!!! I would say it would be about $7 but that's just a guess.

You, and anyone else that might want more than one shirt...

It's a minimum order EACH time. So if you think you might want two, that 2nd one may be much cheaper now than it will be.

For example, we get people to buy 12 shirts for $18 each shirt.

Later only 1 or 2 people want a shirt and now they are $28 a shirt!

It's not big deal to me, I'm not making any money off this. I'm pretty sure though if later you want a tshirt and you find out it's going to cost you $28 you'll just decide you didn't need it that bad. :smiley-laughing021:

Ok so if everyone answer the poll correctly we have 9 shirts to order.

With the sizes selected and the designed shown in the picture, they are $23.30 each.

9 $23.30
Example of more shirts "XL" shirts added to the order:
10 $21.79
11 $20.57
12 $19.57

This wouldn't include shipping from my house to yours.

Oh and just so you'll have an idea on how long this stuff takes to get, if we ordered today it would be at MY HOUSE on December 2nd.

So we have 13 so far. The price to purchase these, not including shipping to your house, is $18.73 each!

If we add 2 more XL t-shirts the price drops to $17.40 each.

Please post up here if you DO NOT want this design. If everyone likes the price, is willing to pay and likes the design we can order these bad boys!

Ok it looks like, and I'm just estimating here, that to ship a t-shirt from my house to Illinois is between $2.41 and $4.95 via USPS. I'm pretty happy with that. It could wind up being more. I need to get one of those boxes and make sure a t-shirt fits in it, plus confirm the weight of .44 pounds.

But at least this gives you an idea.

Ok guys I've been dragging my feet on this to let other people get in on it, but I think the dragging hasn't produced any more orders.

Here's what I need. Send me a PM with your name, e-mail address, mailing address, size and quanity of tshirts you want.

I'll collect the information, calculate the price of the tshirts and I'll start sending out the PayPal requests for payment.

Once I've collected all the money, I'll place the order.

Yeah I'm not a big fan of black t-shirts, but this is what the majority voted for. Sorry, perhaps next batch.

Good question. No, the vote was just to see if we had enough people interested and get a ball park price. Just a PM with the information requested at this point is fine, thanks!

It's all on that t-shirt site. I uploaded the image and the rest they provide in the online t-shirt creation software.

Ok I was encouraged by finding a local vendor for the stickers recently and I just contacted and received pricing for t-shirts.

I'm going to visit their shop which is very close to my house and we'll go from there.

Get your xjtalk t-shirt wearing (and buying) juices flowing again.

My plans are to sell you the tshirt at my cost plus shipping then I'll have some for sale in the xjtalk.com store. Those will be MORE expensive, so if you are going to buy a t-shirt you might want to do it with this first order.

Black isn't my fav, especially since a fat boy gets hotter in black, but that was the color that everyone could agree on.

It just depends on how well they sell as to what we can afford. You know the t-shirt people want a min order of like 12 shirts so 12 time 2 or 3, well you start getting up to $1000 in t-shirts sitting and waiting to be purchased.

Nope. As I recall we either didn't have enough people willing to pay up front, or since it was so close to Christmas I dropped it then never came back to it. I think it may have been a little of both.

Yes, but it's on hold. These t-shirts were too expensive. I want to find a local shop to do them, but it requires I go look at the material, get a t-shirt, check the quality of the work, then figure out the best way to ship them cheaply.

Shipping is a problem with the coffee cups I already purchased and have been sitting on for months. :(
