Suggestion for a item of merchandise

Post by Dr-Jon » Sat Jun 03, 2017 10:22 pm

Hi just had a look in the shop. I was suprised not to see any caps. I expect I'm not the only one who wears one when the roof is down.
How about some forum caps with embroied logos on. If they sorced from the right places (not sure where they are mind you) the cost won't be too prohibitive.
I'm sure a few people would buy one or two. If there were different colours avaliable.
Just thorght I throw that out there to see if it could be a runner

Sounds a good idea I for one would have one baseball cap style .
It could bring in some funds for the forum if enough people are interested :thumbsup:

Done this before with a Jeep club and sure it's a good idea, but someone has to do it. Design, place order, lay out the cash, stock, wrap, mail and manage the payments. The Jeep club still has many left years later and give them away.
Reality is no one wants to do it, but if there are any volunteers I don't see any objections to someone doing it and selling them on the forum.

Easier is just go to eBay and you can have one custom embroidered in chosen colour for £5-£10 based upon colours and quality, inc.delivery

Need a high res logo though...can't just pull off the web as the dpi will be too low for print.

I would wear a tshirt, don't need a hat as I have a roof!

Hi guys, we really need to see what interest there is first. I've been bitten before with sub-standard merch being sold here so if there is interest I will make sure a good quality product is made... problem is I doubt there will be sufficient interest to make is viable. We'll see though :)

Forum logo would be the only option... put BMW anywhere on it and I'd be in a whole world of trouble with BMW!

Is there a high resolution (300dpi) logo anywhere on the forum people can download and add to caps etc?

The logo that Taz has for the windscreen sticker would be good in white on a black cap.

I'd buy one :thumbsup:
