Re: selling shirts online

We used a web product called magento. Not really for the faint hearted as its pretty new.

Depends what your budget is too I spose. Ours was Nil, but we know enough web code and design to get by. Actually thats a lie, we had to figure out a lot. But my mate in the company is the smartest man alive... not officially, that guy in the wheel chair has a higher official ranking... IQ I think its called.

Yeah, probably not much help now that I look back, but I do enjoy typing so I guess its a small victory.

Wait, I did have some advice... yeah if you are web/computer/software savvy then have a hunt around and set what floats your boat. We loved Magento Magento - Home - Open Source eCommerce Evolved. If your not so savvy, then probably get some hired help.

With the internet due to hit computers in the next decade who knows what could happen.

I'll go now.

If you don't want to take the time to setup and install a script on your webhost, you can go the 3rdparty route. Im using shopify.com but there's also bigcartel.com. shopify has more features than bigcartel but costs a lil more a month.

Two great sites. Thanks for the heads-up.

The two shirts for sale were done in Vegas. The other four are being printed in California. The samples look good, but we won't have the whole order until next week. Ask me then if I am happy.

Is that common that the samples look great but the order looks horrible? Shoot me a message on how the order came out I may look into them if it's pretty affordable.
