So, we had a couple of designs costed with a local t-shirt place, details below:

1st option:

White 'Keeper' image on black shirt

Attached File  keeper_web.jpg (74.64K)
Number of downloads: 17

1 screen @ £23 and £5.80 each for 24-49 shirts or £4.75 ea. for 50+

We were thinking we could find takers for 30 of these for sure so the total cost per shirt would be approximately £6.56, reduced to £5.21 per shirt if we got 50 of them. We would sell these for £10, plus shipping.

2nd option:

Malazan sigil, five colour screen print on black shirt - small on left breast or...? due to the cost, seems a bit of a shame to have it this small but it would look cool :)

Attached File  sigil_1___resized.jpg (139.27K)
Number of downloads: 16

5 screens @£23 each = £115 and £10.65 per shirt plus we'd have to get at least 24 of them so let's say 25.

this works out to a total cost of £15.25 per shirt, meaning a selling price of £20, plus shipping. We need to know if enough people would buy one at this price :)

I like the second option and would go so far as to purchase a shirt for myself.

Question, what is 'Keeper'? Did I forget someone named Keeper? I Figured when I looked at it that it was Urko or something, but...

I'm not too familiar with or keen on the first one, or the second one...maybe.

Maybe if there was one with a a bridgeburners logo? Or something on white.

It'd depend on how much money I had available and if you'd ship to the US.

I'd have one Hetan, but it'd be the Keeper one; are we limited to black or can they screen on to other colours etc, just wondered if there was an extra charge for doing the same print onto a different colour, or do you bulk buy the shirts of the same colour???

That is correct. He punches Karsa 'harder than he'd ever been punched before'.

Hetan, I'd fully be in for a Keeper shirt too!

I'm personally not crazy about either one of them, but that may be beacause I'm a female and both of those are pretty masculine looking. They're just not something I would wear, I would buy one though to support the site.

I would happily buy the Keeper one-though i'm not sure how i'd work out payments, since I can't use my cash online. If I can get one of the parents to let me use their card and give them the money though, I would certainly buy one.

I'm not a t-shirt kinda girl either, but I would happily chip in a tenner to the pot at the BBQ.

Yeah, I'd buy either, but I don't have a credit card. :)

We're just getting a feel for numbers currently.

when it gets round to folks here actually ordering something I guess it would be possible to pay via the pay-pal donation button on the main page and just mark the payment T-shirt. We can co-ordinate the money afterwards.

Once we actually get some printed up I'll find out how much postage costs are to the US and elsewhere (SA?) and let everyone know who wants one over there. :)

I'm in for a "Keeper", if you'll ship to Canada (make sure you get some 2XL for the real men! :) )

I would definitely buy either. I love both designs and I like wearing clothes that no-one else knows what it means. :) Will happily fork out for them, plus it won't be extortionate postage to get over to Cardiff. :)

Would definitely go for the Keeper one, since it looks the shiz, and Urb's Brood pic has dissapeared from the options since the last t-shirt post (:))

The sigil one is a tad too expensive for a tshirt for my personal tastes... maybe if it was on a hoody :)

Now that I think about it, the keeper one would be nice inverted if possible. :S Otherwise (just checked the price since I'm observant like that) I don't think I'd buy one.

The costs are significantly reduced by buying t-shirts of the same colour and having one colour ink.

@Brood - the Caladanbrood image can be laser printed on to a light coloured shirt only for a cost of £15.50 for one t-shirt. the price breaks are 2-4 =£13.00, 5-11 = £ £11.50, 12-23 = £9.95


sizes : Medium 34/36", Large 38/40", XL 42/44", 2XL 46/48"

I would hasten to add that if anyone wants to get their own t-shirt done they can - we can email a suitable resolution picture if that makes things easier :killingme:
