Marcarl Posted August 8, 2012 #52 Posted August 8, 2012 I'd take 3, but like the ML on the sleeve. The flag deserves to be displayed properly, it's should not be a dressing point or a decoration, but should be in a prominent place,,,, on the sleeve is good, right hand as you look at it on the chest, but not so good on the back. We want to show pride in our country, hence the rules of display of the flag.

We want to show pride in our country, hence the rules of display of the flag. Carl....the original idea ( see Dons earlier post) is of having a red maple leaf 9"X9" printed on the side. Its not about printing the 'canadian' flag. A picture of just a maple leaf doesn't make a flag. The Canadian flag is called a "flag" when it looks like the photo below. on its own, its not considered a flag. Same goes for the American flag....pictures of stars are not considered an American flag. :canada:abdul.
relic Posted August 8, 2012 #54 Posted August 8, 2012 On vacation and just saw this. I would be in for two. Too late to vote but I like the maple leaf on the sleeve.
XV1100SE Posted August 9, 2012 Author #55 Posted August 9, 2012 Confirmed with screeen printer. Two versions of shirts at same price - one with maple leafe (not considered a flag Carl) and leaf on sleeve instead. Womens sizes can be ordered at $1.50 more.
XV1100SE Posted August 9, 2012 Author #56 Posted August 9, 2012 Do we have a price for shipping? Sometimes that is a deal breaker for me. Got a price from Canada Post... To BC... - 2 shirts - approx $12.50 - 4 shirts - approx $15.25 To Winnipeg - 2 shirts - approx $10.25 - 4 shirts - approx $12.75 They showed me the template they use and if it is thin enough to fit thru a mail slot then shipping charge would only be $2.75. For sure one shirt could go at this amount. Might be able to fit 2 in if I put a piece of cardboard in to keep it flat. For mailers... I can get envelopes thru work. I'll see about creating a member ad and post a link here.
XV1100SE Posted August 9, 2012 Author #57 Posted August 9, 2012 (edited) Ad has been posted in classifieds - http://www.venturerider.org/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=4266 Hope it isn't confusing... but to explain. DO NOT DELAY in ordering your shirts as this will be a one time run with no extra shirts produced. Cost of shirts including HST (including $2/shirt for use of VR.org crest) is : mens - $18.50 ; womens - $20.25 (based on 50 units ordered). Shipping charges - I went to the post office and had them give me pricing for shipping 2 shirts and 4 shirts to BC and Manitoba. To BC - $12.50 for 2, $15.25 for 4 To Manitoba - $10.25 for 2, $12.75 for 4 Use this pricing to give a fair approximation of shipping to your location. Eg. Saskatchewan/Nova Scotia use $11.50 for two shirts, $14 for four When calculating your cost, multiply quantity times mens/ladies price based on cost shown, and add shipping. If paying by PayPal (use Personal/Gift), when you submit via PayPal there is an option for the sender to pay the fee or the seller.... please accept "sender pays" . If doing online banking and sending money via email (probably easiest way) your bank will charge you a small fee - usually $1.50 This is purely at cost with no profit coming to me. My costs are : - Screen printer (based on 50 shirts ordered) : mens shirt $14.35, womens shirt $15.85 - Freebird - use of crest - $2 per shirt - Shipping - based on price received from Canada Post with 7 day delivery For International orders (U.S., Australia, UK) send me info regarding how many shirts you would like and your address and I'll get a price from the Post Office on shipping charge before you submit payment. Personal hand delivery is available within a reasonable distance from Kitchener to eliminate shipping costs. Clear as mud? Any questions please post here. Once we get the total number of shirts to print figured out, I will have the screen printer run the shirts. DO NOT DELAY in ordering your shirts as this will be a one time run with no extra shirts produced. Edited August 9, 2012 by XV1100SE
chabicheka Posted August 9, 2012 #58 Posted August 9, 2012 I would like one.... Large size. or maybe an xlarge....depends on fitting. Can pick up from Kitchener.

Send $$$$ !!!! Once I have final numbers with cash in hand for those that want shirts the order will be run. Need firm numbers (confirmed by those sending payment). Don't want to order 100 and then only get 40 sold (for example). If I get firm orders for 60, we'll run 60. If we get an order for 73, we'll run 73. Sorry... but since this is as non-profit I won't be holding extras. ALSO.... three lines of text will be embroidered on the front - Name, Screen Name, location. If shirt is for someone else (eg Wife), include their name in the order.

Have some more people to collect from and give a little more time for people who have been on holidays a chance to respond.

XV1100SE Posted August 12, 2012 Author #73 Posted August 12, 2012 Possible to pay by cheque ? PM sent. Cheques are fine. Make sure you make it clear what your screen name is on the cheque and note for number of mens/ladies shirts, sizes, location of maple leaf. Make sure both your first name and your wife's is included so if you are ordering a shirt for your spouse we can have her name on the shirt too. My address is : Don Tohivsky 72 Swartz St. Kitchener ON N2E 4A6 Order will go to the screen printer in about 2 weeks, should have shirts early Sept. For those that want to meet & greet... I'll set up dates for Toronto area, London area, Brantford area.... so we can meet more members and I can deliver shirts. For anyone in the surrounding areas that want to save shipping charges we can make arrangements to meet. Any excuse to go for a ride is good !
