Thinking of selling Surf T-shirts

Postby Surf_OC » Wed Feb 14, 2007 8:59 pm

Im tired of paying $20 for a t-shirt so Im thinking of printing and selling em for around $10.
I found a place that sells cool prints.
But Im not sure if anyone would buy em or how to advertise.
Any thoughts? Good idea, bad idea?
Who wants a California Surf T-shirt?!!!!

Start advertising in surf forums. Just like you are doing. Though it is always a good thing to PM the owner, or atleast one of the mods to see if they are cool with it.

Ya I think I'll pm a mod and ask if it's ok.

If you guys are serious, I got some short and long sleeve shirts in L and XL sizes. $10 for shortsleeve and $12 for longsleeve. Heavy quality cotton not cheap quality at all.
They say stuff like "North shore Hawaii" and "San Diego California" with surf boards and stuff. One looks like a Heineken beer logo but says Hawaii.

another thing is if you could post up pics of what you are offering. The other thing you would have to look at on a site like this is what approx shipping costs are. Most of the members here are from the UK.

Here's a link to the shirts I have right now.
Let me know if you can see it or not. I'll have to see how much shipping would be from the USA to the UK.

I think they look tre-cool! Definely something that would sell here in the UK. I'm not a fan of the huge surf brands now and so something different would go down very well!

Thanks! I was starting to loose hope. I really like them myself.

I will check on the womans styles and should know by next week. I dont think it would be a problem.

Im not sure how much shipping would be over there. Does someone have a postal zip code or anything so I can sheck how much shipping would be from the USA?

Feel free to email me with ANY questions at surf_oc@yahoo.com

Thanks!!!

How's this sound, If you buy 3 I'll ship for free.
If 1 or 2 then $5 shipping.
You can email me at surf_oc@yahoo.com for avaiable sizes etc.
Boardshorts will be in next week black, grey or brown, sizes 32, 34, 36.
Thanks for the interest guys, Im getting fired up about getting this business going!
