Ubuntu T-shirts for the group

[leftyfb]

Ok, we have a couple quotes from places to make up Ubuntu T-shirts for the group to be worn at events. The T-shirts would be as follows:

5180 HANES 100% BEEFY-T®

6.1 oz., 100% ring-spun cotton (Ash 99% cotton/1% polyester, Light Steel 90% cotton/10% polyester). Double needle hems. Taped shoulder-to-shoulder.

Sizes: S, M, L, XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL

Color: White

We haven't finalized exactly what's going to be on them but there will be a color ubuntu logo on the front and back. Possibly "ubunu" under the logo on the front and a small phrase having to do with ubuntu on the back.

The bottom line, how much would each person be willing to pay? Right now I have a first time cost of $18 per t-shirt. This is because they need to make up the screens for the colors which will be $200. I am willing to put up the money for this one time cost to bring down the cost for everyone else. If people were to pay $15 per t-shirt it would cover the cost of the shirts and pay me back about half of the screening cost which is fine by me.

So bottom line, I would like to throw $15 out there per t-shirt. Going forward if/when we get more members and we need to order more, we could lessen the cost or put the extra money toward the group to help pay for cost of installfests and other events.

Let me know what you guys think. This is sort of an ASAP thing so please post your responses if you have them

I'd be willing to pay $15-20 for an Ubuntu shirt. When would they be distributed? I'm going to be in Michigan at the next meeting, but that's probably before the T shirts would be ready...

But yeah, sounds good to me.

If we put in the order this week or possibly next, I can have them ready by the 25th for the proposed installfest date, possibly the 23rd which is our next meeting.

should i start us up a cafepress store? that's what the osi uses

[leftyfb]

The cafepress store charges $14 per t-shirt plus shipping. In the longrun, the local place I have is cheaper. Not to mention offer a lot more products if need be.

I personally like darker colored shirts. Black with a full sized Ubuntu logo on the front and the definition of Ubuntu written on the back would be cool. I'll pay up to $20.

[jmnormand]

sounds reasonable to me.

bulk orders get a discount and it might be good to have so that anybody can buy from it. we could get ours through the store by you and also have a cafepress store for anybody who wants a shirt?

Have you any ideas, how can i receive this t-short in Russia?
Price is acceptable

This is a markup Doctormo did. Personally I would like to see the small logo on the front and large on the back with some phrase. What do you all think?
