I would like to take this opportunity to thank Thomas for putting together such a wonderful array of items in which we can purchase to show our pride in LCR. I would also like to thank Brad for allowing it to happen. There seems to be some concerns about where the money will be going. I have used Zazzle before. I used them for one of the Lacrosse teams I am webmaster for. They are a top notch company. I can tell you from 10 years experience dealing with what we called "spirit wear", there are pros and cons with every choice made for merchandising. Some of the more obvious "pros" when using a company like Zazzle is that there is absolutely no cost or risk to LCR or Brad. You get a wide range of products, because everyone's taste is different. Brad does not end up with tons of leftover merchandise with money tied up in it. The "cons" for using a company like Zazzle are the amount of profit LCR will see from each item is much smaller than if Brad ordered a bulk amount of shirts to sell on his own. The price each of us pay for each item is also a bit higher using this format. This is because the items are not being made in bulk, rather they are made to order, which is much more costly to Zazzle. Thus that higher cost is passed down to us when we purchase.
For the purpose of what Zazzle is being used for, it is the perfect solution for LCR. There is no deadline for ordering. No one is committed or has to feel obligated to participate.
Once again, thank you Thomas and Brad. This is way cool, and a definite step in the right direction.
