Easy Come Easy Go
I got an email yesterday evening from a guy in Florida looking to buy some of my Hurricane t-shirts in bulk for his t-shirt store. Bulk orders from CafePress take a week and a half or longer to be produced, and the price isn't that great either. So after some research I found a printer in California that could get the order out in 5 days, and at a reasonable price. So this was beginning to look good. An order of 144 shirts is nice, but it's not going to make me a fortune. What was more encouraging was that if the guy liked the product, he was interested in getting them sold in other stores around Florida. Now that could really mean something. So after getting everything lined up with the printer, and arranging a way for the guy to pay online via credit card (through PayPal), I sent him an email (as he requested) with the final details of the order. And then I waited. Of course, there's not much time to wait, since the order needed to be placed today so be delivered by mid next week. So I called after a few hours and he told me that the power went out at his store, and wasn't expected to be back up for 2 more weeks. He asked the price and said it sounded good, and that he would call to order if the power came back up any sooner. So I could leave it at that, but I won't. I think I've got a good product at a reasonable price. Tomorrow I'll be calling t-shirt stores across Florida to see if anyone is interested. We'll see what happens...
