      pactches in, check out

      T.C.,
      Patches were in the mailbox (along with the normal crap) and they looked great, check will be in tomorrow's mail, thanks. I hope there will be enough interest in the larger back patches to justify a run of them. I know they will be more expensive and suggest that in order to reduce your out of pocket cost that those who are seriously interested either pay a deposit or prepay the cost of the patches. I recognize that your pricing is volume sensitive, so let's find out who really wants to wear their colors and who would rather talk about it. Sign me up for an old style back patch today and let's see who else gets on the train. Good job as always, this site relies very heavily on you and I think I can speak for many other XS-ives in thanking you for your continuing efforts which benefit us all.

        I got my patch today as well, T.C. It's great. I've got just the right jacket for it.

        Thanks,

          Got my 2 today, WOW. I work in a chain print shop where we also sell advertising specialties (like embrodered shirts and patches). These are high quality and look great. They will be on jackets by weekend's end.

            Hi TC

            Patches arrived today - thanks!

            Excellent quality, good price and quick delivery.
            What more could you ask for?

            I just got to talk SWMBO into sewing them on now

                More Patches in the works!

                Hey Neil,

                Glad they arrived in a timely manner, and that Customs didn't bother you, and hopefully no postage was due?

                Believe it or not, we've only sold about 25 so far!

                I've already got an updated XS-XJ Owners Association patch ready(will state '78-'84 vs. only '82 for our Canuck members), proofed, and just need final confirmation, and PAYING them for them to get made, takes only 2 weeks to receive!!

                Remember, $1.00 from each patch is going back into XS11.com!

                I don't mind(much ) putting my money out in advance to get a good price for them, and these smaller patches are not as big a chunk. But I want to get the LARGE "XS Eleven" back patches made, and they will be a much bigger chunk of change.

                So...after "we" sell a few more of these LOGO patches, and then get the XS-XJ OA patches, then I will post and take PRE-ORDERS for the large ones, and I expect to keep the price down to the previous one of $15.00 ea, but maybe even lower!?
                Thanks, and keep those orders coming!

                  How much will the OA patches be?

                  I've been wanting to order two of the new ones and figure I can send you the money for two of those at the same time.

                  I'd be happy to send in the dough for a pre-order big patch, too.

                      The Large Back Patch!

                      Hey JW,

                      The XS-XJ OA patches will also be $5.00 ea.. Surprisingly, they are the same "cost" size, but are considered to be 100% embroidery vs. the 75% for the Logo Patch, due to the Metallic Gold Thread to be used, and the detail of the outline of the letters!

                      Jim, here's the back patch:

                      It will be appx. 8.5" wide, by 5.5" high, need to try to keep the calculated patch order size to 7", which is determined by averaging the width and height, so 8.5+5.5/2=7 average! It, too, will be made with Metallic Gold thread!

                        That's what I thought

                        Very XSive...not very XJish

                        I gotta look for some XJ100 Maxim stuff!
                        I LOVE my OA patch though!!

                          That big patch is definately XSive! I want one badly. Will need to find someone that can sew these on, as I, being a manly man, cannot perform such a task.

                          You know Jim, in it's heart, yours is an XS too.

                            Just got them (well, ok, just bothered to check the mail ) and they look great!!! Really high quality.

                            One of these is going on my jacket as soon as I find a seamstress!
