these ****in new guys on the board, don't know what they're talking about. goddamn...
i wasn't saying there's anything wrong with what he's doing. i wasn't saying he wasn't allowed to post. i was just giving him a heads-up. unlike the majority of you guys trying to "back him up," i've been inside this specific forum most likely since the day i joined this site - which was long before you guys did. $25/ea for a full dye sub jersey is crazy talk, literally.
i've seen companies come and go on here. i've seen companies proclaim one thing, not be able to back it up, and just fail. case in point, since i'm guessing most of you guys from Minnesota have no idea what talking about...
...about 4 years ago a company got on the boards here and started offering full dye sub jerseys for $35/ea, with no artwork fees. now that at time, and even still, that's pretty damn cheap. this company is/was/whatever Sports55. people jumped on that offer like Rachel Roxxx on some D. they were overwhelmed. they couldn't handle the influx of orders they just created. soon their 3-5 week lead time became 6-8 weeks. then 7-10. then three months. and so on and so on. and eventually people just stopped waiting after not getting their orders for 6 months. credit card charge-backs. BBB filing. bitching and bitching and bitching here on the boards. they finally stopped making excuses for what was going on and came clean saying they couldn't handle it.
all i was doing was offering some friendly, while not really sugar-coating it, advice. you can probably handle the workload for MN. Custom Apparel is up there too. ShirtsandLogos in a state away. you guys play softball like 6 months out of the year (i lived in Chicago for 26 years, i know how the weather is up there). but when you start to open up your "market" other areas, be prepared. you might think "oh damn, all these orders; this is amazing," but then come May when you're behind on 75% of your orders because you took on too many, don't say i didn't warn you.
don't think i'm trying to talk ****. i know what i'm talking about. i know how long this stuff takes. i know how much this stuff costs. just be prepared.
