NO WAR Armbands
A couple weeks ago someone posted a link here to a website where armbands were available. I ordered and paid for them but haven't seen them yet.I'm pretty they weren't from a CafePress but I can't recall exactly who sells them. Any ideas? All I have is the PayPal record. Thanks :)
:shrug:

1. All I can tell you is it wasn't Cafe Press

They don't have armbands in their inventory.

BTW, doesn't that paypal record have an e-mail address on it? There must be some hint on there! I take paypal payments, and the seller is listed on the receipt.

4. I'm going to have to get mine next month or make my own.
I haven't heard whether anyone has gotten theirs yet.

We need a national movement on it, seriously.

5. I ordered two back in April
I haven't received mine yet either. I figured the demand for them was so strong they had a hard time keeping up with them. Any updates would be greatly appreciated.

6. They are coming!
I'll find out exactly when, but these are all custom-embroidered piece-work, and are not off-the shelf items.

I recall a 4 week delivery time being mentioned.

You probably ordered them from http://www.armbandsforpeace.com/

7. Guys. I told everyone this intial shipment would take a while.
They will be here to me Monday or Tuesday via UPS, all the envelopes are addressed and just waiting for the bands.

There was a 15 business day turnaround on these plus 2 days for art and setup. It's a very custom product and not something this company has ever done before. That's why it is taking so long. Don't worry, I suspect several hundred of you will get them before the end of next week depending on where you are.

8. Just what I thought.
Patience, people, these things had to be made to order.

I thought I'd made that pretty clear on the blog. And I certainly don't want anyone to feel like there's something sinister going on.

This is a small company that I chose because they are very blue and anti war. They are in upstate NY and the shipping time to me in MN is around 5 days, so that added the 4th week to it. They don't do computerized embroidery, they actually have a person running the machine.. just imagine how long it takes to do 1500 of these. Sounds pretty time consuming to me.

They actually told me May 20th but they are ahead of schedule and in contact with me all the time. I trust them to get them to me as ordered in the next few days.

If you don't get them for a certain event, there will be other events, just make one til you get the embroidered ones.

I will have extras left over so if you need more it won't be another 20 days.

And Ben can vouch for me being an honest business person we've done business together for more than a year. I'm not out to rip anyone off. I made zero money on this project so please be assured that you will get what you ordered as soon as I get my paws on them.
