There are very little websites where one can buy pictured T-shirts directly with bitcoins.

What about you make one?  Meaning that you would not only sell bitcoin-related T-shirts, but also FSF ones, or any other kinds?

To do so we might also need a nice mascott drawing:

I just tested out your shopping cart.  (I hope you don't mind)
Does it generate a different bitcoin address for each customer,  or use the same one for every order?

Thanks for your effort!

Well, we decided to start this as an experiment in a btc-exclusive enterprise. We paid FRNs for our initial batch of shirts, but, if we're successful selling them, a local screen printer has said he'd consider accepting coins for future runs/new designs. The goal is to be able to meet virtually all of our overhead in coins, so if folks have designs that they'd think it'd make sense to whip up in a small-to-medium sized batch, we're definitely open to suggestions!

@Distribution
The shirts are Gildan Preshrunk Heavy Cotton

@Memory Dealers
A new address for each purchase.

Also, I'm going to head to the post office in about an hour, so if anyone else wants their shirt shipped today, submit your order between now and then :)

@doood - Thanks for the referral!

@SmokeTooMuch - Thanks for the order!

@deadlizard - Yeah, that was a crazy up-and-down rally and crash; hence pricing in some volatility risk :). Did someone just show up at mt gox with twenty grand and lay it out all at once?

I know I already answered this to you via email, but in case anyone runs across this: yes we do create a new address for each transaction.

If anyone who has ordered wants Rep on bitcoin-otc, let me know your nick.  I am gdoteof on there.

prices are now adjusted every 5 minutes and are tied to mtgox's highest BUY order with a super secret coefficient.
