Just to get some (hopefully positive) feedback from everyone, here's a preview of something I created a few days ago. I haven't publicised this yet - forum members are the first to see this!
It's pretty amusing and I haven't quite finished it yet, but you'll get the idea:
http://www.cafeshops.com/a2oc
There is nothing I can do about the prices, I can't make them any lower, but if you use a currency coverter (http://www.xe.com/ucc/), you'll see that many of the items actually aren't such bad value. I also can't do anything about the fact that the prices are shown in dollars.
I placed an order yesterday for a cap, t-shirt and stainless steel travel mug so that I can check out the quality of them.
What do you think of the idea in principal?
If I can come up with some more logos, then it would probably make some of the items more interesting...
It's a very clever site, you upload all the images you want and then pick the items of merchandise you want in your shop and decide how you want it each one look - ie colours/placement of the images/size etc. You do it all yourself and never have to speak/email anyone. I haven't quite finished yet, but will hopefully by tomorrow night.
There are a few shipping options to Europe but the cheapest are $7.00 (~£4.26/€5.98) for the first item and then $4.00 (~£2.44/€3.42) for each subsequent item on that order. Have a look at: http://www.cafeshops.com/cp/help/shipping.aspx
It's obviously not ideal being US based and if there was a European website like this I'd use them, but this is the only one like it I could find so it'll have to do for now.
Are you coming to the club social?
