As someone who has not been following this thread until now, I wish the umbrella info had been separated into it's own thread to avoid confusion and I think it deserved it's own thread. Anyhow, now that the decision is made, what will be the cost of a pin?

Why would the info on the umbrellas require a separate thread considering they are a part of the discussion of having ephemera made for TC's 20th anniversary?

And i also would love to know how much the pins will cost each, just as much as i would like to know how much the umbrellas will cost, but it appears about 10 or so people have paid to have 500 made and they will divided up amongst those people and screw everyone else.

PinTiki has very generously offered to sell all of the TC20 items produced on his website. As was mentioned before, he stated that he will sell these items at near cost, and only wants a small amount for his time in packaging, and shipping items, and of course, everyone’s shipping cost would be individual to their location.

I have not seen PinTiki post on here for a bit, I imagine he is on vacation for Thanksgiving?? I’m not sure.

I think the exact cost of the pin depends on getting the design finalized. I had received a PM from someone that said they didn’t think there was enough time for the voting. I asked the forum if that time should be extended till today. There were a few people that responded that the voting period should be closed.

If everyone agrees that there has been enough time for voting, and everyone also agrees that the largest number of votes is the winner, then we can post on here that result with attention to PinTiki, and then he can get pricing on the pin. Again...Is everyone in agreement??

In regards to the umbrella, I will clarify.....The umbrellas will then be sold on PinTiki’s website ....***So, these will be available for everyone to purchase....as was the original idea. ****

The people investing in the umbrellas were helping with capitol investment money, so that one person does not share the burden of cost. These investors will get their seed money back after the umbrellas are sold.

I will now try to get back outside to hang more Christmas lights and remember that the holiday season is upon us....and while Thanksgiving was a typically only USA celebration, that during this time, many people are celebrating the holiday season in some form or fashion....and that as people spend more time embracing the good will during this time.....that things may not go as quickly as we all wish....and patience may need to be remembered. :) I’m sure that PinTiki will be posting again as soon as we decide what pin to make!!! :)
