Title: Small investment with Big fun to be had. Post by: Woodcock36 on March 30, 2013, 01:18:25 AM Gentlemen and ladies of bitcointalk. I have convinced my boss to allow me to start producing btc merchandise, with one stipulation. She wants to check interest. She told me this afternoon that if I can raise 1 btc just in interest that she will allow me to produce 'large' runs of t-shirts and various other btc 'swag'.
i propose to you folks a fundraising drive to meet my goal. For .01 you will receive a 3" vinyl bitcoin logo sticker For .05 you will receive a bitcoin sticker with your username on it. For .1 you will receive a custom sticker of your choice For .5 you get all items listed above and a bitcoin logo t shirt with your username on it. For the whole 1 btc gets all items listed above and a one off silk screened t-shirt with the bitcoin related design of your choice. Yes. I am giving this away, but it is a project I believe in. So, anybody interested. For now use the address in my sig to donate, I will set up a dedicated account in the morning. So, am I out of my mind to think I can make this work, or is anybody gonna help a brother out? Title: Re: Small investment with Big fun to be had. Post by: candoo on March 30, 2013, 01:21:43 AM Whats the website of the company ? I want to send 1 BTC direktly to your boss.
Website? Iam gonna send her a privatekey loaded with 1 BTC Title: Re: Small investment with Big fun to be had. Post by: Woodcock36 on March 30, 2013, 02:08:42 AM She doesn't have a wallet yet. Her only involvement in this is an interest check. I am running all donation materials on my own dime and my own time. Sending her a private key would be sent to the trash because it would look like spam to her.

You are charging a premium on stickers and t-shirts. Stickers and t-shirts that can be made to the buyer's exact specifications elsewhere for a cheaper rate.

Title: Re: Small investment with Big fun to be had. Post by: Woodcock36 on March 30, 2013, 04:48:25 AM Smh, sorry, I forgot where I was for a second. The idea was to show a local business that the bitcoin community was more than a bunch of techie people, and had real world application. I guess I was wrong. As much as I like bitcoin, this is the exact reason it will never become widely accepted.
Title: Re: Small investment with Big fun to be had. Post by: Sukrim on March 30, 2013, 09:22:49 AM You do realize that without giving any information about that shop (or your boss) this looks only like somebody trying to scam 1 BTC?
Also you seem to play quite a bit on Satoshi's Dice with the address (1FKppwEjrenyhNXC9AHobgtuCcBTSLdnzY) in your signature - I don't trust gamblers, sorry. Title: Re: Small investment with Big fun to be had. Post by: ryepdx on March 30, 2013, 09:24:31 PM Plus you're about the 9 millionth person to come in here offering bitcoin stickers and t-shirts...
Title: Re: Small investment with Big fun to be had. Post by: Woodcock36 on March 31, 2013, 01:24:47 AM Well excuse me for trying to make my job a little more bitcoin friendly. Jesus. Mods, please lock this thread. I'm over this. Sorry for trying to use my skills to be a part of the bitcoin community. I won't make this mistake again. I thought of a new motto for bitcoin "invest in a project where you will be ridiculed for trying to further the community, we would rather just have a big ass circle jerk and talk shit to people.". Bunch of dickheads on this forum.
