Happiest Moment of My Life... I think so!

posted 2 months ago by Simply Complicated

So, after the rapid rapid uber major downfall of 32 lol after a year’s worth of work. I was pretty discouraged from starting again because I just didn’t want to fail. But, I did, and if anybody has read my online store posts. I never ever ever ever sold one shirt online for 32 at all. Today however.. I have 19 people who want to preorder SC tees, and 2! stores that want to carry us on release date. They have already contacted me and everything is actually legit. I can’t even describe how happy I am right now its just plain AMAZING.I guess my new line sheet really showed them something they liked :)

Ok sorry if I wasted your time.. carry on

    If we are scared to fail we may never succeed. Dont remember where I heard that from but it seems appropriate in this case. lol

    That’s fucking sweet, nice work! Just make sure you don’t take any orders that you can’t actually fulfill (money-wise, time-wise, etc.), no matter how tempting it may be.

    I’m not going to have the time to take either project where I’d like them to go, and I’ve learned about as much from both of them as I’m going to, were I to continue. So it’s time to move on! I’ll almost certainly be going to grad school for anthropology in a year, and this year I have to write a big ol' thesis paper to graduate, so... yeah. Other things are more important right now. I wrote a pretty sparse overview of my contributions to Fantastic Bonanza on my pretty new personal site: http://www.joewasserman.com/projects/fantastic-bonanza-indie-t-shirt-company Looking at that now, I should probably flesh it out a little more...

    hey TD, when you do preorders, do you actually get a deposit?

    if so, whats the turnaround time until they get shirts?

    im not sure what you mean but if we decide to do preorders.. they pay us whatever the preorder amount is, and we ship the shirt a week before public release which is a couple days after we take down the preorder offer... make sense?

  34. jimiyo - Jimi Benedict avatar

    jimiyo said 2 months ago

    i think so. you mentioned 19 preorders.

    i was wondering if you already collected the money for those, and then they are promised the tees once printed.

    sounds like it...

    no, i just have 19 who want to preorder. we arent going to offer preorders as of now because we are still sorting everything out with the lineup.

    i did a preorder with a estimated ship date of 2 months out. Worked like a charm.
