I realize that the prices are right and all that, but I thought that this wasn't to sell products. If I misunderstood please let me know as I have great access to what is needed from a dealer (stock) some aftermarket accesories etc.

Yes you VERY MUCH misunderstand. The Cafepress site is authorized by this site's owner (ekool). The prices you see there are EXACTLY what it would cost you to set up a store there. I could charge any price I wanted if I wanted to make money from this. That's not what this is about. I would NEVER take any money from this. Matter of fact I don't need it. Check around any other car forum that uses Cafepress and you'll find markups for everything.

Sorry to sound defensive about this, but I just don't want anyone to assume I'm out to gouge members here.

I did not intend to imply that you were "gougeing people. I thought we weren't allowed to advertise. No disrespect inteneded Sir.

None taken! I only wanted to point that out for those who may have thought this was my business. I'm just the means to provide the items Cafepress has to offer and I guess you could say it's kind of advertizing this site as everything has the forums logo on it. It's meant for our 300cforums community.

I think what you're referring to is the Supporting Vendor policy on this and any other site. The 300cforums.com store is authorized by ekool (site owner) because it's a not for profit thing. Now, if I had a markup price I could see there being a problem and it wouldn't be allowed unless I was to become a Supporting Vendor here. I think also it would be looked upon as similar to an eBay seller trying to sell their wares here.

I have changed the thread title from "official" to "authorized" and made a notation in the first post to indicate this is a not-for-profit operation authorized by Admin. in hopes of clearing any further confusion...

Hey, thanks for that Linda!

hey guys, this idea is sweet! I see there are stickers and bumper stickers available at the store to buy, but is it possible to get some decals going?? I mean a sticker is a sticker but a decal (especially in different styles) would clearly distinguish people that are a part of this community from those ones that just bought a 300. or is that idea already available?

[Hemi57]

The decal and custom sticker ideas have been beaten around long and hard in the past. What you see available on CafePress is all there is and all there is likely to be unless you want to initiate a project yourself.

If you do have the resources to do something yourself remember you will need to get the 3CF owner's permission to use this site reference or if you use Chrysler you will need to get their permission too. It is not as easy as it first seems.

Good luck.
