Community Cups & T-shirts?

I have seen on some sites, especially Community based sites the option for Members to purchase Community Cups & T-shirts. The question is... how likely are you to buy a cup, cap or t-shirt that had on it: 'www.InternationalDiscussions.com' or some other catchy phrase that is synonymous with here.

I would most definitely buy a shirt from our community. I am not sure about the cup personally. I honestly do not use a lot of cups mainly because I use throw away cups for milk and juice. The shirt idea however would be awesome. I would wonder if there would be different design shirts similar to the recently designed posters. That way the individual could find a shirt that best suited himself as a part of this community. Only problem with having many choices is that sales requires inventory and inventory does not come cheap. But if there will be shirts offered be sure to let me be the first to order.

I suggest linking up with a site that allows you to customize your own shirt, even if for a little more money. I would love to be able to sport my favorite site on a shirt or hat. If someone loves a place enough to join, they would probably by a shirt too. I think a cup is a little stretched for me, I usually just drink out of bottles. I re-use my water bottle for more water out of the tap. I would consider it though, maybe a coffee mug or something like that.

It is good to see that there are members interested in this kind of thing, however, because of my location I am not sure if it would be wise to market something from here, so is there a place that does print on demand within the US where you can set your logo or design and they handle the print and delivery as needed?

There are actually a couple of places here in my town that do custom screen printing. I will check in on what they would charge to have different designs on hand and do the delivery process. I will post anything that I am able to find out. Surely it couldn't be that much. If we are actually going to be looking at an out source such as this it is quite possible that anything that they generally print and sell such as shirts, caps, cups, jackets, ect. could very easily have the same designs printed. There may can be a possibility to have a lot of different options.

Community Cups & T-shirts?

Thanks Bwren, but I would rather something online so that I can track the orders, unless of course they do already have a web site that handles this. Actually, I forgot that one of the fashion models I have designed a web site for has this kind of thing on her site. I will also check to see how it is done.

I e-mail a gentleman that I once did computer work for that does screen printing locally and he recommended *********. The site really looks nice and they have all of their contact information as well as an order tracking system. I have one other place I was going to check with but it will be Tuesday or so before I will have the ability to contact them.

Message Edited! JB@Trinidad: just removing the link so they do not get free marketing from here. Please send me others by Email. Thanks.

I have sent that company an Email and I am awaiting a response, however it seems that you have to make a preset amount. Maybe I need to find a T-shirt designer to join the Community and then let him/her create and handle the shipping on my behalf? If all fails I will keep this as something on the back burner until I can raise enough funds to create many and then distribute them from 'x' location.
