This thread will be ONLY for those who have paid.
Orders were placed at: http://www.rdtiburon.com/index.php?showtopic=29839
Post your feedback of the calendar quality, likes or dislikes, and vote in the poll.
Last year we paid $10 more per calendar, which used higher quality pictures and heavier paper stock. Would you pay more for a better quality calendar?
You may also post here if you do not receive your order, or there are complications.

The calendar looks really good. Compared to last year, it's slightly lesser quality and it's a lighter paper stock, but in my opinion the design looks BETTER on the wall. Please post your ideas - would you prefer to pay more for the calendar to get better quality? Last year I paid $24 for a Kinkos calendar. This year I spent $13.52 through a Hackerthreads.com vendor.

Thanks to Nate and Missy and Rix for setting up the designs and organizing the pictures for the calendar. They took the initiative to create a solid layout for the pictures and get them into a workable format for the calendar. Thanks for your help, we all appreciate it!!

Hackerthreads does a wide variety of promotional stuff too, including calendars. I have a access to thousands of vendors that only distribute to storefronts like mine as they wont deal directly with the end customer. Every time I've looked through my list of products (also searchable on my website), I've found calendars to be over $15 with a couple hundred piece minimum. Looking again tonight turned up the item that I sent you. Good stuff. And yes, anyone can search through that list on www.CustomTShirtCreations.com, so feel free to distribute or post that link if you'd like. I can most likely get you guys 10% off anything on that site.

mine came in the mail today, they look really good, paper is a little thin, but the pictures are really good condition.
Good job to everyone that helped out with it.

BUT you can't tell the thickness with it hanging on your wall.
your right, but i start seeing the bends in the calendar when its lying flat and that is from going through it...
like i said im happy with it, but say if it was 23 then i would not be...
i love my my calendar, first one i got from the site

Love the quality and price here. Heavier stock would have been nice, but at 10 bucks more, I probably would have only been able to order 1. I got 2 great calendars for under 30 bucks shipped! Thats a winner in my book any day! Thanks for all the work and effort! fing02.gif hail.gif
