Cool shirt!

I can get the shirt printing, but not only will the shirts cost a bit more, but the set charges will be higher for me. So before I commit to the extra expense I would like at least some idea how many people would prefer the dark shirt with white printing and how many shirt might they be interested i...

I am accepting Pennsic delivery pre-orders for these shirts. They are $20 each in sizes up to 4XL and down to childrens size small. It may be possible to get white printing on a dark shirt at an extra charge. I am still researching that.

How do these look on non-white shirts? Does the picture have a background? Or does the black only print? A picture of it on a non-white shirt would be nice, but an answer will do. -Halbrust The image itself is printed, not a square back ground. I know the printer can do white print but I think ther...

Guys, this is actually an interesting debate but it should be moved to another forum. I am guilty as charged for being mad about what I feel are unwarranted massive price increases, and I am also guilty for responding and hijacking my own thread, but lets please move on.

I actually have about 150 on hand and getting ready to do a batch of lamellar, so I can add the rest in pretty easy. Yes the price would be $150 plus $10 shipping.

While you are here, what would be the turnaround time on say 300 loose scales stained a medium-dark brown? And from the price on you site that would come to $150, or is staining extra?

What type of scale? Lamellar or scales for coats?

Let's inject a little real life here before people start hating without reason -- and in ignorance. Tanneries have been getting the snot kicked out of them for the last decade, forced to sell lower and lower, with an exception, iirc, in '08, when they actually had a good year.

Right now the over riding theme for just about all business right now is unrestricted greed. There is nothing wrong with making and honest profit, but speculators and manipulators are destroying the world economy.

Believe it or not the title is not an exaggeration. Prices for leather have gone up by 30% since the beginning of the year, and have just gone up again. I talked with my supplier and apparently the tanneries are hoarding hides to drive up the prices. I have been holding off on price increases but I ...

I expect to have more stock this year than I have had ever in the past. If all goes well I will have about a dozen pairs of bazubands, as well as various other pieces. I am ramping up production right now.
