I like wearing polo shirts (they make T-shirts too

about Linux and I have found good, embroidered shirts from a Hungarian
maker (he does the embroidering, not the shirts actually). I'm not putting
the address here because I don't want that you believe I would be making
business, I am just a customer there.
The point is he asked for suggestions, so I suggested TDE shirts - and he
answered "I was a big fan of KDE3, so Trinity is close to my heart. I'm
ready to make Trinity Desktop shirts, if the project can help me to promote
them on the official website. Without the reach of the users, we won't send
a piece for sure."
Well, so the question is to know if there would be any interrest and
if "promoting" shirts on the website would be desired/possible.
I don't suppose it would, but I just told him i'd ask.
Hi Thierry,
Can't answer you about the website (although I can't see why you personally
couldn't add a wiki page, just make it ‘vendor’ neutral, e.g. these people
sell TDE goods and give x% of sales to TDE, blah, blah).
From a business standpoint these are the things I suspect need to be answered
first:
- What does the product look like?
- What’s the price structure?
- What percentage does TDE get off the sale?
- How long has the business been in operation?
- What’s the background (reputation really) of the business?
From a personal standpoint I’d want to know your experience with the polo
shirts:
- How many have your bought from him?
- How long do they last?
- Need some pics!
Would I buy?
Yes? Everyone varies on what they deem reasonable, I tend to buy new (with
tags) Polo by Ralph Lauren shirts in the 20 - 25 USD range, their t-shirts in
the 7 - 10 range. Which takes a while to find. But Ralph Lauren has pretty
good quality so they tend to last 5 to 10 years, so I only need to buy 3 or 4
shirts per year...
Best,
Michael
