+Pepper Posted April 2, 2003 Share Posted April 2, 2003 Richard thanks for the heads up Team SuperGenius just ordered for the whole family and 1dz trash bags. Nice looking stuff too. Pepper Horizontals where it's at! Quote Link to comment
+Cache Test Dummy Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 None of the Canadian vendors have updated their sites to include the shirts/bags. Can us canucks order direct from Groundspeak or do we need to wait for our local shops? Cheers... illegitimus nil carborundum Quote Link to comment
+hydee Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 They will update their sites within the next day or so and are placing orders for the merchandise as we speak. ~Bryan hydee Quote Link to comment
+bitbrain Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Sweet! Placed my order & didn't even max out the VISA! 15 shirts headed to Memphis... Quote Link to comment
+Gaddiel Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 We only needed four shirts, but we picked up some trash bags and a travel bug as well!! Thanks, Jeremy and staff, for making this great t-shirt deal available!!!!!! Quote Link to comment
Shel Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 any more info on consignment? is that somewhere else and I'm just blind today? Quote Link to comment
TeamCrystalMiners Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 Any chance you guys can make up some youth sized shirts? Quote Link to comment
Shel Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 ooh, ditto on the youth-sized shirts. My seven-year-old will be out helping clean up, but he'll be swimming even in a small-sized adult shirt Quote Link to comment
+PocketPCGuy Posted April 3, 2003 Share Posted April 3, 2003 is there any way to purchase and pay via paypal? thanks, brian Check out www.warrenmurphy.com for new releases and "The Assassin's Handbook". It's back after 20 years!! Quote Link to comment
+GroundClutter Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Sorry if this has already been answered... anyone know what Canadian vendors are selling them? Is GPS City in Calgary? I'd like to order in time for the day Thanks Step away from the tupperware! Quote Link to comment
+Under the Stars Posted April 4, 2003 Share Posted April 4, 2003 Okay, yet another question. Will the shirts still be available for ordering after April 26th? ____________________________ I'm a loner, Dottie. A rebel.

+pdxmarathonman Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 What happened to the $5 shipping charge? Multiple shirt orders have shipping charges at $8.50. --------- Geocaching Cache In Trash Out T-Shirt L White 1 $3.00 $3.00 Subtotal $3.00 Sales Tax $0.00 Shipping and Handling $6.50 Total $9.50 Quote Link to comment
iryshe Posted April 5, 2003 Author Share Posted April 5, 2003 We'll sell whatever tshirts we have left over after the 26th. $5 shipping charge is the base charge for UPS. After that is approximately a $.50 charge per lb. I'll check to see why the s/h seems to be higher than it should be. Jeremy Irish Groundspeak - The Language of Location Quote Link to comment
+pdxmarathonman Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Any update on the shipping confusion? Quote Link to comment
+beckerbuns Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 What's going on with the consignment idea? I'm planning a San Jose CITO event and depending on participation, I'd like to be able to sell these there. ------------------------------------- Becky Davis San Jose, CA Buy Tupperware for cache containers.

+beckerbuns Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Also... Are there 3XL shirts available? I see the prices mentioned in the store but there is no 3XL on the pull-down size listing. Sorry to ask what someone already did, but are you going to have kids' sizes? ------------------------------------- Becky Davis San Jose, CA Buy Tupperware for cache containers. Quote Link to comment
iryshe Posted April 7, 2003 Author Share Posted April 7, 2003 I was wrong about shipping/handling. Base charge is around $6.50 for UPS shipping fees and handling charges with our partners at Sunrise Identity. Unfortunately consignment is not an option. The shirts are already being sold at a loss and we're unable to take on the financial obligation due to our limited funds. We may be able to work with Geocaching organizations in rare situations. If you believe you have a special case, send email to cacheintrashout@Groundspeak.com. Jeremy Irish Groundspeak - The Language of Location Quote Link to comment
Bryan Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 3XLs are currently out of stock and should be back in stock within the next 2 days. Happy Geocaching! Rothstafari Groundspeak Quote Link to comment

Shel Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 You said that you're selling them at a loss? That doesn't seem right ... How much would you have to sell the shirts for in order to break even? I guess you'd want to honor the listed price, besides which changing it in midstream would make it a nightmare to figure out who saw what price, but some of us might be able to make up the difference, at least for the ones we order...

+hydee Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 kids There are not kids sizes available. My 9 year old wears a Youth Medium (10-12) in most shirts, I bought him an Adult Small. Tucked in, you can see the complete logo. It is long on him, but it works. hydee Quote Link to comment
+Rygel Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 So, if I want 1 shirt I have to pay $6.50 just in shipping? Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine. Quote Link to comment
+Newenglandah Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Question for cachers that have the shirts..After washing them how are the XL and the M running for size? Found the cache but where is that damm GPS? See You In the Woods!!! Natureboy1376 Quote Link to comment

Unfortunately UPS hasn't decided to join us in support of CITO day. Perhaps Crichton, Scorpius and Chiana can get a couple of shirts to save on shipping?

+Pepper Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Wow! so cool received our package today yipee t-shirts and lots of very nice trash bags which will be put to good use. Pepper Horizontals where it's at! Quote Link to comment
+wizonkiz Posted April 7, 2003 Share Posted April 7, 2003 Just recieved our first order of 50 shirts and garbage bags for the Inland Empire Cache In Trash Out Event to be held in Spokane Wa. I ordered them late Wed. night and recieved them this afternoon. Very cool shirts, heavy fabric and excellent graphics. No complaints from me. I really appreciate the effort you've put into this idea, Jeremy. Quote Link to comment
+RichardMoore Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 Hey! How come the west coast people are getting their shirts before me? Darn it! I knew I should have paid for the faster delivery. Rygel: If you just order one shirt, with shirt and shipping, it's only $9.50. A good price for a printed t-shirt. But if you order more than one the cost-per-shirt goes down. Four shirts plus shipping is $18.50, or about $4.63 each. A great price for a printed t-shirt, and judging from a previous post they are high quality shirts.

+Rygel Posted April 8, 2003 Share Posted April 8, 2003 OK, thanks. So is anyone in NJ ordering a bunch? Can we get that together? Lack of planning on your part does not constitute an emergency on mine. Quote Link to comment
+GeoGargoyle Posted April 9, 2003 Share Posted April 9, 2003 It is hardly weight oriented. I had 2XL and 2 S shirts. 1 GEO sticker, 1GPS sticker, 8 CITO bags, and a Travel Bug. $25.00 + 15.00 shipping. I removed the Travel Bug and shipping went to $7.00. That must be one heavy bug. And yes, I kept the shipping the same on both orders. I guess I'll have to ge the TB later. I NEED those shirts though. Thanks guys for getting this together. Great price on the shirts. I would be ok to pay more for the shirts and get better shipping rates somehoh. That way it keeps more cash at Groundspeak. To live in fear is not to live. Quote Link to comment
+TheGertridgeExplorers Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 Got my shirts today from Calgary! I bought the small for my 9 yr old and it fits him great! The shirts look really good. I bought some to wear and at least one to leave in a cache. What a great design! And for the price you can't go wrong.Thanks for a job well done! -Donna G Quote Link to comment

+Kouros Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 Received the shirts today... fantastic! Didn't count on them being quite so bright, though! I'm gonna need sunglasses everytime I go in my cupboard from now on. And yea, I will be wearing it next time I go out caching. ------ An it harm none, do what ye will Quote Link to comment

+pdxmarathonman Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 Got my shirts today (all 28). It took 1 full week to get them shipped (I hope it is because they are overwhelmed with orders). Like everyone else - I think they look great! Quote Link to comment
+T-storm Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 I was very pleased with the 6 days from order to delivery for the 32 shirts I ordered for the folks around here. If they can provide that kind of service to Texas, they're doing pretty well. So your week to OR experience probably isn't the norm. And yes, nicely done t-shirts! Wish I'd had more money to buy some for cache bait as well! T-storm http://www.cordianet.com/geocaching Quote Link to comment
+pdxmarathonman Posted April 19, 2003 Share Posted April 19, 2003 Actually, from the time the package left Groundspeak to the time it was on my front porch was - are you ready? 18 1/2 Hours! You are right though, this was non-typical. Other orders have been filled in the promised amount of time of 2 days or less. I am not complaining - I was sincere in suggesting that I hoped the extra time was due to overwhelming demand! Here is an excerpt from the UPS tracking page Apr 18, 2003 2:04 P.M. TUALATIN, OR, DELIVERY Apr 17, 2003 9:29 P.M. REDMOND, WA, US DEPARTURE SCAN 7:37 P.M. US BILLING INFORMATION RECEIVED 7:30 P.M. REDMOND, WA, US ORIGIN SCAN As for cache-bait - since Monday my Free CITO T-Shirt cache has given away 8 of the 10 shirts available! And they need to come to the clean-up event to collect!

+trippy1976 Posted April 19, 2003 Share Posted April 19, 2003 I got the MiGO shirts yesterday and had them for our event today. All 70 shirts went like hotcackes. Thanks for having those made up, they were a big hit and it looked good to have a group of uniformed people marching around We filled a good sized dumpster completely in 3 hours. One anonymous good samaritan saw us out working and was so impressed by our efforts that they stopped by later to give us ice and several 2-liters of pop as thanks That was a pretty cool gesture and I think just the tip of the ice burg from a PR perspective of our collective activities. Shirts came and went, garbage was collected, and the turkey hunters can go out on Monday and hunt in a cleaner, better, state game area -------- trippy1976 - Team KKF2A Saving geocaches - one golf ball at a time.

+ClodStomping2 Posted April 26, 2003 Share Posted April 26, 2003 Got our shirts and trash bags, extremely nice....thanks for your obvious effort, Jeremy! We (my son and I, and whomever we recruit in the coming weeks) will be using the bags and probably leaving a few in the caches....better than the McToys so common here! And what a great price! My son, a Freakishly Tall 8 year old, wears the Adult Small size with no room to spare. I, an adult Female size 10, find the Medium too snug...for info only Thanks again for putting together a very cool, very hip PR event that can ONLY be helpful to this weird and wonderful sport/ hobby/ ddiction... if you find there are excess shirts, bags, etc, I for one will be happy to purchase the extras, even if at a higher price. You can't buy a "yard mowing" shirt for less....Thanks again! Quote Link to comment
