Actually, never mind. I do think homeless people would be able to tell when they're being taken advantage of. But then again, they were dumb enough to put themselves in a situation where they've become homeless....

I don't know. If they're happy making these items, I guess nobody should stop them...

all im going to say is the hooded scarf and scarfs in general seem to be a better product.

it will grab a better demograph than woolly sweaters, and the design just looks better.

hooded scarves are a new trend and definitely something the fashion industry will pick up on, so im glad to see your upping your game compared to the proposal you offered last month.
Lol.

Here he goes again!   Grin

I never said anything about selling a sweater. Don't start with that, please. I said my friend made me one, then she made another person one, then she wasn't making anymore for sale.

I don't understand how you don't understand. Also, my friend is the one that comes up with the items. Not me. You're really starting to annoy me with that.

a simple 'thank you for saying the hooded scarf is a good idea', would suffice..
But you counteract me thanking you when you bring up something that I never suggested. Never. Ever.

I never wanted to sell a sweater. At all.

Did you go into the type of fabric being used to make this clothing? I hope it is wool and not some synthetic material. I prefer wool for the following reasons :

    Wool is durable and long lasting.  Wool fiber is unsurpassed in flexible strength. 
    shape for a lifetime of use.


    Wool is absorbent and healthy.  Wool fibers naturally draw moisture away from
    the body and can absorb up to 30% of its weight in moisture without becoming
    clammy from perspiration, keeping you dry when sleeping.


    Wool provides comfortable warmth.  Wool fibers are fluffy with tiny air pockets.
    Their loftiness and cushiony insulation keep body heat in and cold out.


    Wool is flame-resistant.  Wools’ natural moisture content makes it non-
    combustible. A wool blanket will not melt or ignite into flames; an excellent
    safety precaution when sleeping or lounging around the campfire.


    Wool is dirt and odor resistant. Wool's microscopic scales hold dirt near the
    surface of the fabric, making it easy to remove at the same time preventing
    odors from being absorbed by the fibers.

Some people struggle with allergies and wool is the perfect material for some of these people. Do you carry stock or do you create them as the orders are being placed?
I don't know, I'm not a designer. To me, it looks like microfiber, or cotton wool.

Knowing my business partner, she would have probably used cotton wool because of vegan concerns.

My friend is trying to help advertise Bitcoin by bringing it into the fashion industry with hand knitted items, just in time for Bitcoin sweater weather. She is currently selling on her brand new Etsy shop, and is currently trying to get bitcoins accepted on Etsy, so that will be a big step in Bitcoin growing.




YOU NAMED THE TOPIC BITCOIN SWEATER.
drama over you been outted, but calm down.
lying and editing posts wins you no trust. lying and insulting reduces your reputation and your brand. so please put aside your ego and act like a businessman.

now that is said.. lets just draw a line in the sand..
there needs no reply to the above.. leave it in the past and move on.. feel free to comment on whats below

the fashion industry is ready for bitcoin, its "ripe for the picking" you have positively moved forward with a better product, the hooded scarf is in fashion, the demograph and consumerbase interest is larger and because of that i think you have a better chance.

i hope you are having conversations with your business partner about how fast an average non-skilled knitter can make a scarf (the homeless you will employ) so that you can calculate a wage+materials=cost.. that way you are able to guess a retail and wholesale price.

i say this because i have seen many come up with a good product but then price themselves out of competition due to labour costs.
EG if it takes 10 hours and minimum wage is $7.50 then that has priced you out of being able to sell it below $75, which even for the fashion loving teenagers and the knitwear soccer moms.. is a high price..

leaving you with less consumer-base/demograph of people who are willing to buy.

i know you will keep saying you are interested in the fashion industry, meaning you are not interested in the 'functionalwear' industry of cheap clothing at $1 that anyone can wear... but from the bitcoin point of view and to maximise the bitcoin recognition side of your business idea.. you need to be at a priceline that satisfies the highend you need to make your brand respectable. but not be too expensive that not many buy it and thus missing getting bitcoin recognized by the masses.

are you thinking of hand knitted (the granny way) taking 3 hours-day, or machine knitted taking minutes?
as i hope you have atleast done these calculations/tests before spending money on trademarks, domains. just to be sure that you are at a competitive rate BEFORE you start

I DO NOT TRADE OR ACT AS ESCROW ON THIS FORUM EVER.
Please do your own research & respect what is written here as both opinion & information gleaned from experience. many people replying with insults but no on-topic content substance, automatically are 'facepalmed' and yawned at

Omg I can't let anything goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo you were selling sweaters and i want to make your business my business becausr i dont have anything better 2 dooooooo blah blah omg
lol.

It's like only pictures grab your attention, but the words written don't at all. So because I post a picture of a sweater, that automatically means I'm trying to sell a sweater....? That sweater doesn't even have the correct btc symbol. That's a completely separate trading item.


I said she was selling it in her Etsy account, which she has every right to do. She can sell what she wants to sell without your approval. We don't care if you're interested in our items or not. She said she was gonna sell a sweater, but I never said I was going to sell a sweater, so stop bringing it up. I was just showing the sweater. Leave it alone already. You're extremely annoying, and I wish that I could just block you from ever posting on my topics.

And no, I didn't name the topic that (exactly) at all.

I tried being nice. So now I'm gonna do it this way:


I don't care about your opinion.
I didn't ask for your advice.
I don't care about your advice.

Please leave me alone. I tried so hard to make it clear before, but you honestly behave as if I care what you think. Just leave me alone.

i've been homeless before and no i am not dumb or brought it on myself.
your an ignorant fool shooting your mouth off about things you know nothing about.

your insult to any person that has ever been homeless is simply mind blowingly retarded.

I get a kick out of it though because just when i thought i was the most hated guy around here you show up..
In this last few weeks you have been here you have managed to piss everyone off in every forum section.
..blowing past me and stealing the title of most hated LOL

too bad you can't lock this topic once you get the last word in huh ? Wink

FUD first & ask questions later™

We just started making hooded scarves!

With Star Wars coming out, wouldn't it be a better idea to make hats that look like the death star?
