10/10ths Decals etc.
I was thinking about the possibility of my drivers - quite a few of whom use 10/10ths - displaying ten tenths decals on their race cars and had a bit of a look to see whether they are available. Also if any of the other usual regalia was out there somewhere.
I found a closed thread with comments along the lines of : I've got a hat, I want a Polo Shirt, you can't get them any more, tee hee aren't we lucky to have one etc. There was talk that TT used to "do" merchandising, but not any more. One member posted "I'm guessing that there are about 3 times as many members here now as there were when the shop was closed. I wonder if we could talk Craig into reconsidering... ?" Well Craig, Can we and are you???? |

I think if there were enough response and some firm orders, Craig might take a different view. I do agree that there were a lot less members at the time the TT goods were stopped (I have a badge on my overals). Maybe someone else could take on the mantle rather than burden Craig with the work?

I offered to take some responsibility for this back in the olden days, but Craig (graciously) declined. I'd be willing to work with somebody on your side of the pond, to save shipping costs, if the shop could be opened again.

My problem is two-fold. I was let down by our previous supplier of embroidered merchandise. Although their quality was excellent their promises of matching service came to nothing and they could not be replied upon. I also have the problem of the amount of time that it takes me to operate this area of the site. It's not too bad at this time of the year as this is our quietest month of the year at work but, for most of the year, I struggle to find the time to do what I do let alone take on any further responsibilities.
On the suggestion of using the services of a volunteer I am reluctant to do so. Not because I don't think they could do it, rather I have done so in the past and it ended bitterly. I may be able to assist with decals for racecars as I *do* have a good supplier for these who have produced large numbers of decals and signage for me. However I'm not sure people would want to pay for these and, as this site is financed purely out of my pocket, I'm afraid they'd have to! |

Craig, may I suggest you let people know approximate prices and then see what the response is? How about rear window stickers for cars?

I would love to have a 10/10ths T-Shirt or Hat, depending on cost of course. I also like the idea of the car sticker. In fact there is a chap at work who is a member of a well know British based Rallying forum and he has a car sticker in his car window.

Thank you for your speedy order, Crazybloke. I've just replied to your PM BTW. Come on everyone else - there's some more gear there if you want it!
 Ah - so you were at the impromtu auction that day, were you?  I had no idea who anyone was apart from EP and Shinners so thanks to you all for your generosity (all the proceeds of the patches that day went to the Motorsport Safety Fund rather than 10 Tenths) it was indeed a bit of a feeding frenzy!

The polo shirts are very high class and hard wearing. I have 2 but I think one of them and my cap are at the home of the friend with whom I travel to Le Mans.
I can understand your frustration with volunteers (getting a newsletter out without my core of dedicated writers would be hopeless, but you learn who to rely on and who not to.) The good thing is, we work cheap!

Craig,
I would order some stickers, but my car is white! What about some round vinyl stickers of the TT logo. I am sure that loads of people would buy them assuming the price was right? |

Just to confirm stock levels - all shirts have now gone bar one medium white T shirt so get your order in quick if you want that as it could be the last one ever sold!!!
Justin, I can provide some vinyl in marine blue which makes a very good 'backing' for white cars. I only have a limited supply of this though whilst it remains I will supply to anyone who needs it when buying decals for white cars. Alternatively I have a very limited number of these larger stickers available in black for the same price: |
