Several listers have asked about green ACW mugs...I've got some made now, there's two sizes available. www.bradclick.bigcartel.com
The recent talk about the Rivendell wool stripe shirt reminded me I put a deposit on one as to not repeat my missing of the purple version. Generally I am not enticed by pre-order type sales of anything, but it seems recently that is THE modus operandi out there. Especially noticed in the bike industry. I was pretty shocked with the Appaloosa presale, specifically the give us a large chunk of change for a bike we will not tell you about....aside from it'll be neat-o. But, I realize Rivendell makes great stuff, and doesn't miss the mark often (if at all?) so that goes a long way in buyer confidence. They apparently are successful since they fill the slots and sell the goods. I want to do tees for the ACW, though I've been concerned with how many and what sizes so maybe a pre-sale is the answer? That said, I'm not Rivendell who can show a picture of a headbadge and have people line up with wallets prized open. Do you think these pre-sales are a key to bringing cool US made goods to market that otherwise would just remain good ideas? Is it a can of worms to open up public opinion and influence because you'll never make everyone happy? T-shirts are silly, and not really part of the equation, but I AM curious about the pre-order phenomenon. For the record, I am eagerly awaiting the wooly stripy, and had an awesome experience with my Ocean Air Cycles Docena pre-order. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
