Jesus can't you guys just open up a CafePress store with a 20% markup, brand everything in the inventory, and call it a fucking day?
CafePress.com : Help : Pricing Policy
Here's why that hasn't happened yet:
Dark T-Shirt $18.99 base price + 20% = $22.78
Long Sleeve Dark T-Shirt $23.99 + 20% = $28.79
Women's Dark T-Shirt $19.99 + 20% = $23.99
Don't those prices seem a little high for just t-shirts?
We're looking into alternatives, etc. Even their base prices are a little out there.
Dude. You tried to sell us $50 zippos. Just put the merch up for sale. It doesn't cost you guys anything.
Here's the way this works. You WF brand the whole damned CafePress inventory. 20% markup, whatever. I'm sure some of the kids here will buy their lady friends a pair of WF brand Thong panties. Then, after a few weeks/months, you find out what items actually sold quite a bit (ya know, like more than 1). And at that point, you go buy 100 of them at discount and pass those savings on to Dave & the rest of the nimrods.
Moral of the story is that it costs you effectively nothing to test the CafePress waters and there's nothing but upside & market research for WF and the brand. By doing this "what do you want" garbage, you'll end up with another awesome zippo debacle.
Just my $0.024 (my 2 cents at a 20% markup)

I agree, Cafepress is ridiculous, and the quality is low. Here is what I recommend:
Brunetto T-shirts
They're cheap, only have a 12-piece minimum, and you wouldn't have a problem selling 12 or more of each size. T-shirts are only $7-$10, hoodies are only $19 for 3-color prints.
I haven't used them personally, so maybe you could ask for a sample to see the quality before you order a bunch.
Also at queensboro.com you can order embroidered logo polos for pretty cheap. I wouldn't go with the lowest-end polos, but maybe the one up from that. Shouldn't be much more than $10 each, 4-piece minimum.

I see people keep on posting T-shirts which is have a good demand. I think it is a good idea and I personally voted for it. Moreover I think T-shirts are not that hard to produce and not expensive.
My suggestion is to make a really cool black/red theme colored.

No to CafePress. I already ruled that out on day one. Every review I read says their quality sucks and I think their prices suck.
I just got Halo-related t-shirt from a CafePress publisher.
White letters on black.
1st wash, and the shirt faded enough to see the square where the design was printed, and it looks like they used black ink for that part, or something, as it is still black but the rest of the shirt is lite-black...
No to CP! (CP... CraP... Yea! That's it!)

Does anyone have any experience with Printfection? I've read some reviews that say they have really good print quality. And their prices are one average about a buck less than Crape'Press.
God I hope you fuckers don't test your ad campaigns like you choose your branded merch. This is retarded.
See, what I don't understand is the opposition to Cafe Press... It doesn't cost anyone anything. Those that want to try out some WF branded junk can give it a shot, and maybe that'll help the OP figure out what "official" merch to come out with. If nobody buys, than nobody loses.
WTF?
