Re: [ms] Tee Shirt Interest. (UPDATED) - Delayed Indefinitely

Its with extreme disappointment that I have to announce that the T-Shirts are indefinitely delayed. Request you to kindly not ask how / why / if / when / what. Let's just leave it at indefinitely delayed. I will update when I get the next chance.

I'm truly sorry about this.

i just hope Dom is doing alright. this ones for you buddy: :Gay:

Re: [ms] Tee Shirt Interest. (UPDATED) - Delayed Indefinitely

Suggestion -

How about a more simpler design in a single color screen instead. The four color process version you have posted on page 1 would be expensive to produce. Full color on a black shirt can get very expensive since you have to lay down a thick undercoat of white applicant ink. The better quality the shirt, the more undercoat needs to be applied, sometimes twice. The alternative to silk screening is heat transfer which again could get very expensive due to the full color design. A simple single color design with solid ink coverage (no screens or gradients) where you can interchange the shirt colors and ink colors (i.e. orange ink and/or white ink on black shirt and/or white shirt, white ink and/or black ink on orange shirt). Utilzing the same single screen will cut down major cost and turnaround time. If you do a minimum order of 12 dozen (144 shirts), you can possibly cut your cost to $5-7 per shirt (depending on the pigment, blend quality and weight of the t-shirt). Black is usually a $1-2 more due to undercoat requirement. Orange shirts are probably an extra $1 depending on the orange tint of the shirt. I know quite a few people in the apparel and silk screening industry and can get you some quotes and options.

Also, to raise the capital so you don't end up using your own front money. Offer a pre-sale, pre-pay time frame and a discount, after the deadline date increase the price as an incentive to pre-pay and pre-order. Also, if you plan to go the multiple color choices route, you can offer multi-order package discount to increase your quantity ordered which in turn will reduce your cost per shirt.

FYI - If you need to know my qualifications on this matter ask JibJolly, he knows who I am.

Thanks for your time.... the "O"

Re: [ms] Tee Shirt Interest. (UPDATED) - Delayed Indefinitely

I've been doing some nice heat transfers lately for my shirts, and they come out really nice, but like he said, the more colors you use, the more expensive they get. And they basically feel like someone put a piece of rubber over your shirt, there is no way air is getting in there. You don't wanna wear it out on a hot day. Printing on vinyl heat transfers can be a bit hard as you need to find someone with a gerber edge machine...preferrably the most recent one that can do 600 dpi. As the other ones could only do 300, which isn't bad, but it does kinda mess up photographic images on vinyl.
