Small update: 12 ordered so far, we need double that to have an interesting price. They need 3 - 4 weeks to produce, end of order date should be 5th of May to be on the safe side.

If we order only 15 pieces, price will go up to €43,- each, so that's a significant difference...

OK, any thoughts on how we resolve this?  I'd really like a flag but at this rate we're not going to get enough to get the cheap price?

I don't mind contributing a bit extra towards a float so that we can order the extras and then hopefully flog them off nearer to the 24 - not sure how that might work out practically though??   

Thoughts anyone?

Forgot to mention that I would imagine that when people see them at Le mans they would possibly like to buy one for next year.

Okay. Slight multiple amount of dilemmas here.

First one is the amount of people. Up untill now we have 16 flags ordered.
The people are>>
Piglet
Werner
Wishywashyman (x2)
Doris
Andy Zarse
Powermite
RichUK
Robspot
Papa Lazarou
Lorry
GaryFrogeye
TonyT
Flobee1kenobi

This is not enough. But I have some weird plan.
An amount of 25 flags works out €25,- a piece, while an amount of 16 flags would be €43,- each.
Why don't we pay an extra 7 Euros and order two a person. Then the second (unwanted) flag can be sold for the required €25,- to whoever you want, so there is no significant loss in the end. I think that's the only way, unless you want to pay nearly £30,- a flag.

Secondly it's the artwork.
I've been in contact with Robbo, and the file he has is too small. 4kB simply won't work on a flag which works out 100x150 cms.
I have also been in contact with Grand Fromage, who gave me the mail address of ChrisConsidine, but Chris doesn't respond. Maybe he is on a holiday - or his mailbox cannot be reached, but I haven't had a response since my mail dated April 7th.
So I have been photoshopping in the mean time. And what I've come up with is slightly different to the original>>



So that is how the situation works out. The flags are more expensive then announced, and the artwork doesn't match up completely. Maybe my last hope is Martini, I will send him a PM to see what he can do. If you look closely, it's only the checkered flag that doesn't match. The rest is okay.
I will send PM to all involved somewhere this week to get all answers.

Will let you all know asap what happens with this...

Paddy that sounds like a fab idea - good creative thinking! 

The artwork looks fine to me (but I'm not in the slightest bit creative!!) - on the basis it's going to be stuck at least six metres on the ground I doubt anyone is going to notice any differences! 

Count me in & let me know how to get you the money - paypal or Euro's at Spa LMS perhaps?  In fact if you want me to collect UK money from people I'll change it up and bring it to Spa if that makes life easier....
