Default Black corvette owners...Please read!!!

Here's the scoop on the cool Black Sheep Squadron T-shirts. Jim Willis says that he orders the shirts from a vendor, but can only order them in quantities of 144. Right now he has orders for about 2 dozen, (one of them is mine) 24 down, 120 to go. So if you're waiting for your shirt, it'll be awhile. Check 'em out at the CF Mall.

Regards,
TB51

Find a new vendor. This is a ridiculous policy.

Quantities of 144?! WTF! That is absurd. I wish I knew someone who could do it for less quantities. :(

I have a friend here in Houston who owns the third largest shirt wholesaler in the country. They can get Hanes, etc... As for screening, we get shirts done all the time in quantities as few as 5. Once a screen is made, doing shirts is no big deal. Let me know if I can help.

P.S. I own a blk/blk 02 Z

Jim, you might want to try Jones Sportswear here in "our town". Located at 2nd Ave N. and 17th St. 326-6264.

My wife uses them for her company. Good pricing, good service, local vendor.

First,
Thanks for your answer. OK I'm interested. Is this vendor GM licensed? If so, let us know. I'm just interested in getting my shirt. Jim Willis is a gentleman, but it sounds like it may be quite awhile before he can place an order.

Regards and Happy Turkey day to all.

Chris,
E-mail Jim Willis at JDWillis@Mindspring.com.

He will tell you.

BTW, how's the weather in Joisy? I lived in Elizabeth for nine years.
