A while back I saw some reference to a memorabilia auction at the DFH party on friday? is this going to happen? if so I have an item - framed autographs on a page from a 72 73 British GP (Mass and others) and pictures of the Tyrells. It's in my loft getting dusty, would donate it to a worthy cause.

The auction will be taking place on Friday night, but it will be for Charity rather than the CA Server Fund.

We're still collecting goodies, Will try to post a list of it next week, so people can already consider on what they want to place bids. You can understand that we can only go with COD for the auction, so I guess it is fair to prepare you for it by announcing a list of items. Smiley

I'm selling my signed GE ticket on ebay. If it goes for any sensible amount I'll make a sensible donation to the CA server hosting fund, if not, it goes in my son's scrap book.

What about a generic CA t-shirt that could be available all year every year? Still produce the LM specific ones each year of course.

The generic t-shirt could of course consist of a LM / sportscar theme.

Could also apply to a car window sticker. That way all members could advertise the club whilst they drive around. The window sticker would appeal to more people perhaps becasue it does not damage the paint and can easily be applied to and removed from company cars, vans etc.

The committee are looking at all things merchandise, but until now, we have put it on the back burner, as to produce and stock different styles/colours/sizes of apparel and other merchandise would require significant financial outlay.  Our initial objectives were:

1:  to raise sufficient funds to keep the site alive in the short term
2:  to build up a reserve to keep the site alive in the medium term

After that, we could then look at longer term initiatives.

However, we have been directed towards a site that seems quite reasonable cost-wise for small or even individual items, and it is currently being investigated.

As far as 'generic' shirts go - the polo shirts produced by JPC this year were non-year-specific, and very nice.

As far as car stickers go - we did some several years ago - still got mine on the car!!



I'm not advocating we do the same again - these didn't go down too well with the ladies   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Have a look at Cafepress (www.cafepress.com). It's possible to start a CA shop for no outlay at all - they run the site and supply the goods - all that is required is to upload the designs etc. and decide upon which of the merchandise to offer the designs on.

Another site I frequent uses them and the quality of the goods is excellent and the printing very good - they arrive quickly and with the $/£ rate at the moment people buying from them get a very good deal.

Just a thought ...

Only problem with Cafepress is, they are situated in the US of A. This drives up the sending costs (checked them out for some DfH-apparel).

Agreed, but with the current exchange rate that's offset a fair bit ...

Only because most of us have yet to meet a real man on that basis.  24 seconds would be more like it...

I like the look of the CafePress site for a possible calendar though as all the other sites I've found have ludicrous minimum quantity orders.
