Hey everyone. Haven't been checking the site much recently, playing a key role in a startup that is about to get VC funding = not much free time. Anyways, this is the latest info I have . . .

A couple days ago the sales rep gave me a rough ETA of 4 weeks. I offered to pay something extra for it to be done quicker since it's a big order and there could be more coming later on. He said he could do three weeks with no extra charge and will see if they can do even sooner with an additional charge. I'm still waiting on a response to that last part.

Gotta remember that this isn't an easy one design order that they have to do. It was about 8 different designs (each sleeve length and cut is a different design) and a good amt of jerseys. I know they probably get orders even larger but this is by no means a 2 week turnaround type of order. That + logistics getting it together + my own fault for being busy and even lagging on it = wait time.

Thanks for bearing with me. Trust me, I'll also be breathing a sigh of relief once I get my new jersey and everyone else has theirs too.

Trust me, selling jerseys is not very profitable at all. I'm not even sure yet if there will be a profit or if it'll be like last time (lost money). Lots of other ways to make more money faster. For one, I could pimp Jessie and Dino out.

VC funding was for the place I work at. Which is nice for me because I'll finally get market rate for what I do. But . . . I am also working on another side project unrelated to all of that.

Just as long as I have mine in time for the '09 Counting Coup

I might have a Vintage First Generation Long Sleeve DH/Freeride STR jersey for sale. Worn once. XL that I'd be willing to part with. PM if interested.
