No problems in playing post office - I’ll put a post on the local FB page to garner some more interest.

😂 if it’s a motivation, then this is an example of good coming from a bad situation I suppose.

I apologize for this no XXL problem. I’ve spoken with product and part importers (furniture, metals mostly), and the shortage/shipping thing is real. It started with computer chips for cars, now we see it up close.

Read about how Toyota is shutting down a large percentage of its production next month. It’s crazy. I’ll find a link later.

When SARS hit the fan, lots of empty containers were stuck wherever they happened to be, so on top of supply-line issues, there isn't capacity to ship. I just watched a video by an airline pilot who flew a jet with an empty cabin to Australia from LAX, with a belly full of freight only.

Ordering is open!


Navy - $20 - $4 shipping any number - US and Canada

Navy order page | for MVS Contributors - free shipping

Please check the math. I haven't tested this yet. There is no tax because I didn't want an additional headache.


Royal - $24 - $4 shipping any number - US and Canada

Royal order page | for MVS Contributors - free shipping

Please check the math. I haven't tested this yet. There is no tax because I didn't want an additional headache.

Don't put Royal shirts in the dryer for the first few washes. The ink is thicker, and I tested on low heat dryer and it "grabbed" a little. High heat would have not been great.


International

Because it's difficult to find exactly how much shipping is, I'm going to do an in-person test at the USPS of various countries. (Really, the shipping matrix for size/weight/packaging/destination is so great, I couldn't find good answers.) I'll update this thread when I know. I'll keep a number of shirts in reserve for international MVS members.

The links don't seem to recognise ordering one of each; it adds the shipping for both ?

Working on it... so far there doesn't seem to be a good solution to this. Paypal has left their legacy buttons to rot.
