P with the history!
I did the 1st-3rd run (I think) of the OG Hardline swag, and did one run shirt. Then I handed the reigns to P for the next round. (Yes there was drama within the Hardline Crawler club)
The fact that I was doing the gear, I think I made an est. $12.58 total after all was said and done on hundreds of items and hours of time, and hauling them to the post office etc. We were selling and shipping for pennies above cost. The effort wasnt worth having a whole bunch of people who bought the items, be pissed because they thought you were making a penny off them. But damn sure bet they wouldnt do the work themselves. P learned the hardway as well when he did 1 run and said "**** y'all"
Years went by and John made a run after massive pressure. Was nice that he did, but it was clear that he shopped out to the lowest bid. Walmart quality shirt, with single color shitty screen jobs. And the hats, its like an iron on that Ive never worn because I'm certain the logo will fall off when it gets sweated in. If I lived closer I'd gladly give my black and purple forum shirts to people that want them. They arent worth shipping.
Maybe all this sounds negative. I would think a fella who is already setup for the whole deal should take it under his wing and do it. There aint money in it, if there was all you assholes would be selling tshirts. I'd nominate Cole to add it to his current business with his Madram shirts. Obviously Cole aint getting filthy rich off tshirt sales otherwise he'd have quit BFG years ago. That way they are on his website under a hardline banner, and anyone can order. I'm sure there will be club members who will poopoo this because of all that money they could be making for the club. Yep, all $12.58 of it over 100's of items.
My $0.02, and sorry if i threw you into something you dont want a part of Cole. But you are the best suited with your current suppliers and business model.
