$$$MR. MARKET$$$ T- Shirts

[mrmarket]

I was thinking of making some $$$MR. MARKET$$$ t-shirts to give as a gift for that special someone in your life. Is there anyone here who would actually want to buy one?

I'd need to see a pic first. Have you decided on the look, or will there be member input?

I'd probably just point some company to this website and have them design it.

Have you looked at http://www.cafepress.com all you need is a picture to upload, and you can put it on t-shirts, mugs, mousepads, etc.

I tried the t-shirt thing already. The problem I had, was with keeping enough shirts in stock. They sold quicker than I could get them. You can't believe the number of complaints I got from impatient fans who didn't receive their shirts soon enough to suit them. I'll never try it again.

My recommendation - Make sure to buy in bulk and hire employees to take care of shipping and customer service.

Good luck on the new venture!

Put me down for a couple. As a matter of fact I would like to swap T's with you. Just ordered a couple from my daughters company and they should be here before Christmass. It is in remmberance of the two fallen fellows in there company. ===> MEA

I just mentioned it to my wife...she wants one...but I'll take a pass for myself...How much are they?

Not to give you a big head or anything Ernie...but my wife does enjoy looking over my shoulder when I'm posting here.

Guess I don't have to worry about what to get my wife for Christmas now...hopefully she'll like this better than that Super Duper Robotic Mop I was gonna get her from Overstock.com

IIC,
I don't know about you IIC , but I don't want my wife wearing a shirt with Mr.Market's picture that says " I did it 62 times in a row".

I got an idea. How about a shirt that says "My other portfolio is just like Mr.Market's"

My Two-Cents

Ya'll,

I like the idea. So here's my two-cents worth:

You can't put Mr. Market's picture on a tee shirt for us to wear. Why, his hugeness would be too big to put on some of our narrow, computer geek chests.

How about a polo shirt with an embroidered logo over the left breast about 3" or so square. I think that looks classy, has at least a little tact, and the IBD boys won't think we just a bunch of hicks. . . . And yes, I object to MEA1958's suggested logo. Perhaps a picture with a very short, catchy logo would be best. I think we ought to give the logo serious consideration, and would like to move away from "Mr. Market is huge." How about, 'I invested with Mr. Market is huge forums, and all I got was this lousy shirt?"

New-born baby,
I take offense to your "narrow computer geek chest" comments. What about us couch potatoe 48XXXXL guys? Mr. Market looks like a young boy on my massive chest!

Logos

I got it! I got it!! I got it!!

While reading the thread about "stops are for wimps," I was suddenly struck with the inspiration for the correct logos for our "polo" shirts.

We could have two diffo sets: one for those who use stops, and one for those who do not. For those who trade without stops, the shirt would be red, and the logo would be a 3" picture of Mr.Market, with a "MRMARKETISHUGE.COM" across the top, and the phrase 'Stops are for Wimps' across the bottom.

For those who trade with stops, we would have a navy blue polo shirt with a 3" Spikefader Bear picture, the phrase "MRMARKETISHUGE.COM" across the top, and the phrase
"I trade with stops because you never know" across the bottom.
