Shipping Today

October 11th, 2007

Shirts are in and they look hot, stickers are in – 2-3 for this month (a few were delayed at the last minute – 5 stickers lined up for next month already).

If you’re in the US you should be back in ze schwag by Tuesday! International orders are looking like a week from Monday (possibly sooner). Let me know when it gets there, take pics, we’ll put ‘em over there >>.

It’d be pretty cool to see schwag pics in front of landmarks =)

More fun stuff happening next week.

    @Nate: Isn’t the suspense part of the fun? =) If you email me I’ll email you a pic, I don’t want to ruin the surprise =)

    Landmarks eh? I guess I could go stand in front of a giant grain elevator. Yeeeehaaw!

    got my package today…wearing the shirt as we speak! great shirt

  7. Angela Says:

    I like the shirt…but…$25 for one shirt and two stickers?? :(

  8. Jake Says:

    As to Angela, I did a search on newegg.com for what I would consider to be a comparable purchase as to the schwag you’ve received (mine’s apparently still on the way). The Link attached is a search result for Newegg items. You can see that their tee is listed at $10 and that their stickers are $5 each. Totalled, that’s $20 plus shipping. You can see that the price is comparable to other items, even though it may seem pricey.

    I’m amazed it got to Canada in 3 days =) $14.95 for a tshirt (and 2 stickers) is a little below market price, taking into consideration bustedtees, threadless, etc. Shipping was USPS Priority this month. I’m going to look into possibly adding a ’slow-ass-shipping’ method that would be cheaper, but there’s a tradeoff between fast and cheap, and ‘fast’ in this case is quoted as 6-8 days for international. The word I don’t like when it comes to shipping times is ‘varies.’

    Next month will be at least 5 stickers + American Apparel (for sizes AA supports – I don’t think they have a 3XL). If you’re a subscriber you’ll get access info to a little address / shirt size management app at some point this week.

    Awesome green shirt, love it! Keep it up man!

  13. Angela Says:

    Jake: I know, and it is a nice shirt…I am trying not to be negative because I think this is a really fun thing…but for that price, I could have just ordered one directly, and gotten it a lot faster, too.

    My hopes were more along these lines: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jrhyley/135720335/

  14. Laurent Van Winckel Says:

    I got mine today :) (From Belgium). The t shirt looks really neat!!! Thanks.

  15. Mike_L Says:

    Just got my Swag today, in France.

    I’m Kind’a happy,
    The tshirt looks like it was printed on the cheap but it’s got TechCrunch on it so thats OK.

    I know that finding Cool Quality Swag is hard, but that what we’re hear for ; ). VallySwag stuff was ok, I hope your going to be kick’ass.

    Still in for a few more round,
    BigUp
    Mike

  16. roddy Says:

    @Brad: Thanks!
    @Laurent: Sweet – that didn’t take long!
    @Angela: Working on it =) 2 tshirts + bags + stickers – is that the first or second ValleySchwag bag? We’re not likely to ever get to the point where we’ve got 2 tshirts, 10 stickers, etc =)
    @Mike: you should see the cheap ones – you can see through them =)

  17. Mo Says:

    It’s here, great stuff :-) And a nice Star

  18. Jake Says:

    I love the little star thing. The tee is awesome! Here’s a question, what’s the ceke or cake or whatever? You gonna put links up with the companies featured in the schwag bag? – J

  19. Al Says:

    Just reached the UK

    I’m now very green :-)

  20. roddy Says:

    @Jake – yes, either this afternoon or tomorrow.
    @Al & Mo – glad it arrived =)

  21. Zach Says:

    This is killing me! Why is my schwag taking so long to get to Southern California but the Europeans got theirs almost instantly? I know it will be great when it gets here, but when that will be is anyones guess…

  22. Andrew Terry Says:

    Yay! My schwag was waiting for me when I got home last night, and I am now bedecked in green! One question – which Jake has asked already – what’s Cake/Ceke all about..?

  23. Betsy Weber Says:

    What a great surprise waiting for me when I got home from a tradeshow this week! Thanks! So fab…

  24. homard Says:
