    unless... someone has a really good connection to an embroidery machine owner...
    Is that $200 to make up the first 50?

      The way it worked out with the companies I checked out was this:

      50 @ around $4 each

      or

      100 @ around $2 each

      This was for a 4" x 4" patch...

      So yep... around $200 for the first 50... or the first 100...

          I'll put it in my bailiwick and see what happens
          If you shove it up there... I don't think I'll want to buy one.

                  It's early... I'm a bit confused...

                  Is that $7.50 each?
                  Didn't you post they would be $5.50 each to the group with $1 going to the site? or was that a guestimate? or am I just remembering wrong?

                  (I dream things sometimes... but it seems so real... still trying to figure out where I put those millions that I KNOW I have around here someplace)

                          Wow, that is awsome! My fav magazine too.
                          Better be ready, this may translate into larger patch/shirt orders.
