Can you have them made to order, Horney? A quick Google throws up this company, but there must be many more: ubersticky.co.uk/What you are looking for is called "Drop Shipment", and how it works is this: You take care of the online shop, but the manufacturer of the product takes care of everything else. You can use an API to send orders straight into whatever system the manufacturer uses, or just auto send emails, and they print the sticker and send it straight to the customer. You agree prices in advance and get charged monthly or per order on a Direct Debit basis. This is also popular with t-shirts, and if you are interested, I can hook you up with the UK's biggest t-shirt drop shipment company who use DTG printing (so much better and longer lasting than any other t-shirt print method). Send me a PM if the t-shirt thing interests you, but aside from that, I definitely recommend switching to a drop shipment sticker provider. It totally removes the requirement to go the post office yourself or have a stock of stickers, and it also means you can offer products that maybe only ever sell in very low volume eg this more expensive style sticker! Jonny who runs Ubersticky is a mate of mine. The only reason I don't use him for the stickers is because Ben from Solstice Signs is also a mate, used to run a supercharged MX5 and does all the livery and graphics for the race cars of myself and Skuzzle. Keep it in the community. I also prefer having stock of stickers because I can take them with me places, I sold £20 worth at the meet on Sunday. Posting them out from work is all sorted now anyway. On the T-shirt front though that's a good shout and it is something I'm looking into. I use T-Shirt studio at the moment because I've used them in the past for my Team Horney Racing kit and they've alway been spot on for service. I also really like the black and white Ts and properly love the hoodies they use. I've got about 5 of the hoodies, lol.

I've made a Coxswain up. I sent the stickers out with a little free gift not realising that said free gift makes the letters too big and not valid for 1st class small letter postage. Therefore those of you that ordered them may have to collect from the PO and pay 20p extra postage. Many apologies. THe POs new rules on postage are so bloody stupid! If you've ordered some please let me know if they turn up and if you had to pay extra postage. That sweet just cost me one pound Canoeing 50. It was very nice though. Sticker is cool too.

Use Solstice for the stock and Ubersticky for the posted ones? With the t-shirts, I know the supplier I'm talking about uses very high quality bamboo cotton t-shirts, but these are just suggestions, it's all running smoothly at the moment, so no need to change something good unless you get bored of having to order stock, pack it up, and send it out.
