the only problem with that is that your friend sells them to you with his mark up and then you have to mark it up to make a profit to sell to HMT. You could make them cheaper and sell them to HMT customers cheaper. In order for that to be worth your while, you would have to buy bulk from your friend. Are you prepared to do that? I thought it was an easy money maker at first too. I would do some homework first. Either that or you will end up doing a massive job and find that for all your trouble, you made less than you would have working at McDonalds.

Re: thinking about starting a mail order company

You guys make this too complicated. Make 4 designs, all of them with cool looking logos, and offer all 4 shirts as a package for $__.__. No polls, no this or that. Customers don't want to do the work for you (designing, deciding what's cool, ect.).

4 cool looking shirts. Cool is subjective, but not difficult to pull off.

But i'm pretty sure "HMT" is not registered by Jeff so he doesnt really own anything but the homemadeturbo.com address.

Assuming that Jeff will give the ok and phil stubs gets a program other than mspaint, this could actually work.
