A few things...

 

I've placed the order for new shirts. They will be performance material vs. cotton and the price will be slightly more. 

 

I have a new sticker design coming in. More details to come...

 

I also ordered a small supply of 9.01(c ) magnets just like the sticker.

 

I'm still working on baseball caps with the Umpire-Empire.com logo, I hope to have those in the not too distant future.

 

People have requested polo shirts, sweatshirts, coffee mugs, Tervis tumblers and more. I haven't been able to order those in enough quantity that would make them what I consider reasonable. For polo's and sweatshirts if you are really interested let me know. If I can put together a minimum order of 5. I'll make an order, but will not be able to give a price until I place an order.

 

If there are any other items you'd like to see if I can get please let me know.

 

I'll make a new post when these things arrive.

 

Thanks,

Warren

Great!

Will these be "flex fit" as opposed to "adjustable"?

Also of note for the store. I hired a "Fulfillment Manager" to make sure my orders go out in a much more timely manner.

 

I feel horrible about how long it takes me to get some of the orders out. Especially, @JaxRolo your last order.  :hopmad:  

 

 

She starts today and is paid by how quickly she gets the order out.

Better, the teenager who's wishlist is a mile long, and doesn't appreciate the value of money yet. She wants to buy a MacBook Pro and I told her she had to earn her own money to get it. This is one way I thought of for her to earn a few extra dollars. She's also getting her CPR/AED certification and will be taking babysitting classes at the hospital so she can start babysitting for more than just family.

So the fulfillment manager is also the CFO, CEO and ensures that you mop floors in a timely fashion as well? JAXROLO has it correctly, as hard as that may be to believe. Just not the wife, but another in the line of bosses.

Of course the crashing end to my excitement of getting U-E shwag in question form-will I have to pay extra shipping?

 

No, there is no extra shipping charge to ship to Alaska.

Chief Rolo and MajorDave were asking if you might offer UE logo nutttybudies in extra small size?

 

 

 

 

 

Don’t shoot the messenger as I am just passing on this request made by @JaxRolo and @Majordave.

@BigUmpire

I don't know what @JaxRolo uses for an excuse but I'm divorced. My ex got IT ALL. That's my story. And I'm sticking to it.

Yep they do seem to want to take with them things they did not want use when they were married to you.

Hope most of them choke on it.

Scratch the magnets, at least for now. 

 

After getting the estimate which I liked I got a notification of how much they wanted to charge for shipping last night I cancelled. They wanted almost half the product cost for shipping. I'll try again elsewhere.

Hoodies!

 

 

 

Hoodies!

I haven't got enough support for that idea, Warren. :lol:

 

 

I've looked hoodies.

 

To place an order of 5 (their minimum) my cost would be about $20 each. Sizes 2X and above would be an additional $2 each. The first price break is at 10.

 

This would be a black hoodie with the Umpire-Empire.com logo on the left chest.

 

If you would like a hoodie, here's what I'll do.

 

  1. I will not add my standard mark up and just do this as a flow through since I doubt we will ever order in significant quantity that would allow me to mark up the price and sell as a regular item.
  2. PM me your interest and size. 
  3. When I get 5 or more people stating they are interested I will notify all who responded and give them an final price. S&H will be $6.00 as long as your order fits in a Priority Mail tyvek envelope. (If you happen to order 2, I'll get in contact with you about shipping)
  4. When I receive payment from those who are interested I will place the order.
  5. The company I use states 2 weeks for delivery (I've never waited that long for here, cub scout orders or other  orders but we'll stick to that)
  6. I'll have them shipped out immediately. 

Warren,

Not sure if this will help you, but ........here's what I did with my 9.01C sticker .....  I made it into a magnet!

I ordered this, and placed the sticker on it!  

 

Awesome!
