Cafepress.com
I've got a Cafepress store up, and yes, nobody has bought anything from it.....except for me. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"> I set it up cause I wanted a T-shirt for myself! <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/wink.gif"> And at about $12 for a one time printing of a full color shirt, it's actually cheaper (including shipping) to use Cafe Press than it is to go to a t-shirt printing place and get your design silkscreened or anything like that.<P>I HIGHLY recommend them for people who don't do a lot of "business" or just want shirts for fun. <P>Scrubbo <A HREF="http://sillyconev.keenspace.com" TARGET=_blank>http://sillyconev.keenspace.com</A> <P><p>[This message has been edited by scrubbo (edited 11-02-2000).]

I was just wondering how many of you use Cafepress.com for an online store? I am thinking of signing up but I dont know whether to bother.

Nobody's bought anything of mine, either, but I'm not surprised.<P>I did get a tee shirt sent to me, however, and the quality was better than I expected. The transfer is sharp and bold, the colours are crisp and the process they use (although rubbery at first) seems pretty solid. And you gotta like any tee shirt with a name like "Beefy Tee".<P>I'd assume after years of mistreatment or regular wash cycles (or both), the design may start to fade or streak, but even silkscreening will do that after a while. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the quality.<P>It's worth a shot.<P>------------------

I use cafepress' services and I believe they are a great idea.<P>------------------
Only cool people can see <A HREF="http://hellsweethell.keenspace.com" TARGET=_blank>Hell Sweet Hell</A> . To everyone who isn't cool, it's invisible.

I have not signed up, though I have been offered a couple of times. I just don't think enough people would actually buy one of my t-shirts. Maybe if my strip gets a bit more popular, but for now, It's not for me.<P>If anything, I'd do it so that I can buy a t-shirt for myself. It's not usually so cheap making one t-shirt with a special design assuming that cafepress has top quality.<P>That's all I have to say about that.<P>Pauly<P>------------------

I have a store there, but nobody ever buys anything. But then, I also haven't been able to update my comic on a regular basis since August...<P>--jwh<P>------------------

Shannon: Cool!<P>Steve: I've heard that about Cafe Press. Anything outside the US gets socked with outrageous shipping costs. I don't think you're too far off in your figures, sadly. Sorry I didn't think of that until your post.<P>Tirdun: I think it's ~$1.37/1 pound sterling. Keep in mind that I suck at math and I can't spell "caffeine".<P><P>------------------

I just read the shipping costs for the UK. $20 for first item and $5 for each one after. Is that good value? (sorry I'm hopeless at converting currencies)<P>------------------

I have a Cafepress Store: <A HREF="http://www.cafepress.com/boygirlclub" TARGET=_blank>http://www.cafepress.com/boygirlclub</A> It's a great service. I bought one of my long sleeve t-shirts (by check instead of using my credit card) and I think it's great. I got it last week and I'm wearing it right now here at school. If anyone signs up feel free to use boygirlclub as your referal thing <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif"><P>------------------
