Anyone else up for getting in on a T-shirt buy to support Armorama?

I clicked on the Cafe Press ad and found how Armorama makes money for the site.

Cafepress takes the bulk of the money for each shirt sold. Armorama gets a cut of the difference.

If we can get between 20-99 of the same item bought in a single month, the site gets 50%more from the sales. More than 99 and they get even more...

So, how about we all coordinate to buy a t-shirt in the month of July. The white logo t-shirt would give the biggest profit margin to Armorama.

Anyone interested?

That's a great idea! I'm in. Now if someone can just post a reminder on July 1st, you know, for us old guys who forget things. Now, I gotta go look for my teeth...

Was going to buy one sooner, but now I'll wait until "The Great T-Shirt Stampede of '03"

Nice job figuring that out Ghengis!

Chris

Hi Everyone,

I put up a new topic "Unofficial Armorama T-Shirt Fundraiser" as a place for people to keep a tally on how many shirts we've got. Please post a message on that thread if you participate in the "campaign".

Fundraiser starts tomorrow, July 1st. Something new to spill paint on... excellent...

Happy upcoming 4th of July

Cheers,
Ghengis
