BTS Merchandise???

[Andrew Ferguson]

I'd like a sticker to put in my car window to show I'm a member of the BTS. I'm sick of seeing people who pamper teeny weeny little dogs with bows have stickers in their cars. I want people to know I have a tarantula and I'm proud to be a member of the BTS. I've found trying to glue my membership card to my head just isn't practical or funny.

So what has someone got to do to get one? Or a t-shirt? Or any merchandise for that matter as the e-store seems to be empty!

[Stuart Common]

i want one saying My tarantula ate your pussy read into that which ever way you want lol

[Peter Lacey]

LOL, at least you got a membership card!

Usually there is a BTS merchandise stall at the shows. T-shirts, badges, cups, mousemats and Elephants.

I made my own by just enlarging the BTS logo, sharpening it up a tad and printing it to the size of a taxdisk and using a taxdisk holder for it in the windsreen.

Because the BTS is basically run on a subscripion basis and most of the income is taken up in producing and despatching the journal we are unable to carry any large amounts of stock. Our main point of sale for merchandise is our annual exhibition so we tend to produce any specifically for that event. Any surplus is then sold via the e-store.throughout the year until it runs out.

This said we do have some merchandise availbale but we took the store down as ordering would cause dissapointment and delay.

Carstickers were produced a few years ago and did sell well so we intend to do them again. Another problem is that as volunteers we all have " regular" jobs so to speak adn as many of you know Martin Nicholas ( Yes TV's Martin Nichlolas" runs the merchandise as well as jetting off around the world boring....sorry I mean exciting them with tales of his exploits ( sorry Mart only joking)
Bear with us and we will discuss it at our next meeting which incidently is on Saturday which is the AGM.

why not use one of the online stores, you know like that make your own tshirt / stickers etc, let them do the ordering and manufacture and pass profits on to the bts?

[Ray Hale]

The problem with that the BTS T-Shirts etc are very high quality and if you have ever used one of the online T-Shirt manufactures they tend to be rubbish and VERY expensive

Good idea though Stuart

[Stuart Common]

ahh, thanks Ray, no I have never tried one of them before

I can attest to that. My BTS T-shirts look just like they did when I bought them a couple of years ago, and they've been worn and washed many times.

They are excellent quality

That's good news Ray. And as I brought up the subject, can you put aside a car sticker and a t-shirt (size M) aside for me please?
