Thanks for the clarification. Didn't want anyone to think we were trying to rip them off. I guess Chester has to fix the first page with the picture of the T-shirt that shows the $15 plus $3 to be $18 plus $4 since the higher price doesn't show till you go to the next page.
Seems like a bargain when you figure in all that goes into getting them and getting them out. I ordered mine this morning.
Thanks again for all the hard work you do FOR us.
Looking forward to your call when you get the time.

Joined: Feb 2005 Posts: 2,019 | Brian, I'm sure I'll be totally delighted with what I get for the price. You've put a ton of hard work into this, and also gave us all a chance to feel we were a part of it.
I'm very grateful for this site being here and for all you do, day and night, for OCF!

Joined: Nov 2002 Posts: 3,552 | I took a fast plane to China and have received many compliments on the survivor shirt since I have been here. Got 'em on Saturday, just in time for the trip. I'm going to where the yellow one on Hong Kong on Saturday.
Thanks's Brian, they look & fit great.
PS I've paid a lot more money for concert t-shirts that were crap.
Bob, I'll call you tomorrow when I find out more about my schedule with the client.

Joined: Sep 2003 Posts: 153 | Kathy and I got our t-shirts ordered. Can't wait for them to come and and to get a picture of us wearing them on our new tandem bike. The survivor and the caretaker will be in sync and smiling.
Thanks for the efforts to get the shirts made and hopefully it will generate lots of bucks for OCF.

Let's all help out by Spreading the T-shirt news. There are folks who will gladly buy them, if they know about them.
i posted the OCF t-shirt info to CCC, Cyclist Combating Cancer, and got a couple of resposes like this one....
===============================================
Great buy. I just ordered four. One for me, one for my wife and her chairman. Not only is he is an otolaryngologist/head and neck surgeon he is also an avid cyclist, and finally for my cycling buddy John.
He got me a Discovery channel cap, this way I can | | |

Joined: Mar 2002 Posts: 4,916 Likes: 63 | Larry b...your order has left California, and I cannot thank you enough for your creative thinking in getting them exposed in other venues. We intentionally kept the wording "oral" cancer off the T-shirts so that they would apply to any cancer survivor or patient, regardless if they were a breast cancer patient or what ever, and that means 10.1 million people in the US. It's a huge market of us out there.... If we could only reach 1% of it !!!!

I bought mine today and got one for a pretty wealthy guy that is a friend of my husbands. He's a cancer survivor, just finished treatment for colon cancer about 18 months ago, and he is an avid diver. He does two fundraisers a year through his dive club, diving for a cure, and he is a huge fan of Lance Armstrongs. I know he is going to go crazy over this tshirt and want to buy more.
You should think about sending one to each cancer treatment center on that top 50 list, with all information on how to purchase one, and ask them to display it in the waiting room. I know if I had seen it when I was at radiation or an office visit I would have bought one as quick as possible.

Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 44 | Along the lines of Minnie's idea, if every single person who regularly uses this website bought and wore one of the Lance shirts to their treatment facility and to every doc & dentist office they go to (way too much), many cancer survivors and family members will be exposed to the shirt's availability (and OCF) at no additional marketing cost! I ordered last week and am looking forward to having the shirts...
