do you ever plan on doing sweatshirts again?
I won't say never because i prolly said that about the hats and the other batch of sweatshirts, but it will be some time as it took SOOO long to sell them last time and it's too expensive to make small quantities of things.
For example i probablly around 300 t-shirts in stock right now

Actually i have one gray 2xl hoodie and one red XL hoodie. I think what I may do is go ahead and auction them off here on the forums for charity. I'll think on it a bit.
do you have a pic of waht they look like?

for sweatshirts id suggest doing only one or two colors. like black and white. will make them much easier to sell.
No one buys white, i have some misordered non-hoodies and i couldnt give them away. The issue with the hoodies is high initial expense and no matter how many of whatever size and color i order it's not the color people want. For example the Red was prolly the best looking hoodie i have seen and the only people who bought the extras were people who had already gotten one. As far as the t's i think i order over 500 this run, which the savings in the quantity will eventually pay off, I have learned a lot over the years with these deals and they are pretty painless at this point for all involved. When people see the stuff in person I can't have enough on hand, I've always bought top quality clothing and even the off case where i bought something (like the lanyards) that didn't turn out the way I had hoped, I refunded the people's money AND shipped them the product. Every year at rotorfest i sold everything i brought, even sweatshirts in the dead of summer.
