Oh yeah, and as a "grand opening" special... I've dropped the prices on t-shirts. Ends Saturday.

Thank you! icon_biggrin.gif

All though, we don't really need "luck". biglaugh.gif

The store is just to simplfy the process. The way I was doin' it before was tedious, time consuming, and over all... SUCKED.

Don't need luck when you spam all the forums you post on, free advertising works better then luck.

Holy balls! 28 bucks for a HAT? 65 for a hoodie? I don't think so.

Yeah, custom gear isn't cheap. Especially when you offer the options we do.

The hat quality (Flexfit 210 fitted hats, 3d doublestitched embroidery) is just as superior as these...
$26.00 -- Alpine Stars x-corp flexfit

$25.00 -- Rockstar by ONE industries

$26.00 -- Fox Racing Vertigo Fitted

For the hoodie? We started out with an ultra premium hoodie that runs us $36.00 from the manufacturer, before the embroidery company even touches it.

We've got screen printed hoodies coming that'll run $33 bucks, available in a dozen colors. They still really nice 10.2 ounce HANES drawstring pullover hoodie.

The products might not be your style, or in your price range, but the market is what the market is. Hopefully once we build some rapport with our suppliers, we can start dropping the prices a few bucks here, few bucks there.

It may be similar quality but the caliber of the brand "ZG" isn't on par with prices.

If it was me, I would use the lesser stuff to make cheaper products. Thus more people buy and the name gets out there more. And when it is a bigger phenomenon, like you talk about going nationwide, well when that hits, THEN up the quality/prices when the people are BEGGING to get into this group or be "cool" enough to rock this around town.

I mean Rockstar! Alpine! FOX!! of course they can sell a hat for $26, why? Because they are a worldwide phenom that kids will go fanatic about and buy no matter what to have that look. Not to mention superstar riders rocking their logo to bring in even more fan base.

My business .02 of the day icon_biggrin.gif

edit: Sorry I did forget to mention that the store looks great, products look great, and props to expanding your group to this level. icon_cool.gif

I hear ya, but if I stamp the ZG name on it... it will, without a doubt, be the highest quality products available. Weather it's a ride, a party, an event... you'll never hear someone go "Yeah, they cut corners to make it happen"... ever. It always has, and always will have a WOW factor to it.

And that's what sets us apart.

We did some polls to see what out members preferred. They would much rather pay premium prices for top-notch gear, than anything else. And they were right. We've had NO problem selling our gear. Outsiders might not agree, but then again, we're not marketing to outsiders.

I refuse to "sell out" or cut corners. Worst case... we're $1 or $2 dollars over the "big names". That's not unreasonable considering who we are, and what we represent.

Quality over quantity, 100%, every time.

If you're not marketing to outsiders, why are you dropping the ZG name in almost every post you have on here?

So you'd take the quality $1 bill over the couple million crumpled ones? biglaugh.gif


In all seriousness I get what you are saying and it is a good route to take, especially if that is what the insiders want in the first place. icon_smile.gif

icon_rolleyes.gif Exaggerate much?

Furthermore, there are a lot of people on here who aren't "outsiders" and rock zg swag. This forum is common ground for us and them. Stop being so bitter, it's not your color.
