I have another source that uses quality materials, and the costs are much lower (even with print on front and back). I think the exec talking about "too costly to start up" is a bit of a joke - little league ball clubs do this, as does your local insurance agent, realtor, etc.<BR/><BR/>I will be working on this over the next few weeks. Looking at an ecommerce portal as well... Paypal will be the route we take. <BR/><BR/>I'm considering more than just Liberal messages... There are lots of American political message and environmental message shirts out there, but very few - if any - Canadian ones, and the one's I have seen have 2 or 3 shirts, no hats, toques, thongs (Mound, I don't wanna picture that...), etc.WesternGrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06658358114507615351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-90260253622291892082009-01-07T11:07:00.000-08:002009-01-07T11:07:00.000-08:00He hates it, but this is about raising money, and ...He hates it, but this is about raising money, and selling him...

I will also say that my t-shirts will be significantly cooler than any of the LPC ones. The idea for me is to have "cool" shirts that people will wear. If the shirts are too partisan - with official Liberal logos on them - they won't be worn, except at party events or during elections. I want stuff like the "hope" t's that the Obama team put out. The "Ignatieff" Worhol/Trudeau ripoff shirts were fabulous. <BR/><BR/>I'll be focusing on "liberal" vs. "Liberal", and if the LPC has an issue with that, they can direct their inquiries to my brother's law firm...WesternGrithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06658358114507615351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-50217244255214986832009-01-06T14:09:00.000-08:002009-01-06T14:09:00.000-08:00I have thought this was always a great idea, howev...I have thought this was always a great idea, however to do the idea justice and to be cost effective I would think a sizeable investment should be made first. <BR/><BR/>With economies of scale I imagine the price would be cheaper than if one was to make these themselves. <BR/><BR/>I would also inquire into the legality of making these garments with the liberal brand on them, and if name infringement is avoided, is the resulting brand still an attractive product. <BR/><BR/>To avoid this, have you received any reply from anyone within the Party on using the official Liberal logo?thescottross.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08632822060893291800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28423454.post-61995515120007907972009-01-06T14:04:00.000-08:002009-01-06T14:04:00.000-08:00I KNOW!!!
