T-Shirts Promotions Have Now Concluded

Certainly nice to see Bob Saxton's lady modeling one of shirts!!

They look like really nice shirts, I'll probably be ordering one especially since it benefits FWRHS.

Side note- I see they're printed by Spreadshirt. I took pics of 765 last week right behind Spreadshirt's facility here in Greensburg!

765 on Horseshoe Curve and a redhead modeling a T-shirt for that occasion

 

A winning combination!

Correct, the East Coast Production Facility backs right up to the NS Mainline. There's a second production facility out in the Phoenix area. The company is German based.

Anyone else having trouble with the ordering site?  It's very slow and every time I click on "Add to cart" I get a page cannot be displayed error.

 

Have to try it at home I guess.

Thanks for the heads-up here!

 

I tried to see if I experienced the same issue but did not encounter a problem either adding an item to the cart, or proceeding to checkout. Admittedly, the site loads on the slow side and I'm working thru a Comcast Business Class connection.

 

I personally placed three separate orders thru this site during trials to see how it worked, and it worked well at that time, and my items were delivered "As-Ordered" & "On-Time".

 

Since I set this particular site up I'll be monitoring it throughout the day and dealing with customer service should this becomes an broad based issue.

 

If anyone else experiences connection issues, please make a note of it here.

Thanks for checking.  I'm sure it's something funky with work.   I'm going to put my order in tonight. 

 

These shirts anre great and and for a very good cause.  Thanks

All T-Shirt Promotions have now concluded.

Thanks for the "heads up" on this Bob.  My son and I rode the trip yesterday.  Just ordered two shirts to help keep the memories fresh!

Thanks Curt,

 

My stats report for today says 2 shirts headed to 30114 - I'll assume that's you.

 

A couple tips to anyone considering a purchase of one of these shirts:

 

When you receive them, try to wash them as little as possible. In fact, if you treat them as a keepsake, rather than a garment, they'll last much longer.

 

If you wash them, read the instructions: turn inside out and wash in cold water. If you iron them, not recommended, turn them inside out also before doing so.

 

These are Digital Direct Prints, which though very good, do not hold up to repeated washings, which is their achilles heel. Their advantage is that they allow for a much broader color range which is why high-def images can be used in connection with graphics as I have applied in these designs.

 

Fortunately, most of the shirts used in the manufacturing process are Heavyweight Gildan 6.1oz All-Cotton which are about as good as you can use with either Digital Direct Printing or Screen Printing.

 

As far as the pricing. Each shirt has a built-in design commission of $2.95/per printed side. Of that, I am donating half of my after tax commission to FWRHS, and I will increase that amount if they furnish me with a copy of their 501(C)3 certificate.

 

To date, sales of these shirts have not exactly blown the doors off. Truth be known, sales such as these are best generated on-site during the event. At one time I was physically able to participate in these events, but due to a permanent disability I am no longer able to travel at will.

 

If anyone has any particular questions, please feel free to ask here, or send me a personal email at: classiclights at yahoo dot com.

 

Thanks -
