Wicked Girls shirt update.

Here's the sitch:

It took us a LOT longer than expected to track down payment from everyone, and some people still haven't made good on their orders. These orders will be canceled as of Sunday, so that I can proceed with submitting the spreadsheet to the T-shirt manufacturers. I don't know how long printing will take, but will let you know once I have an estimate.

After shirts exist, they'll need to be shipped. This is going to mean a MASSIVE shipping party, probably at my house; volunteers will be solicited. Because we'll be doing it all by hand, I expect that mailing everything may take two to three weeks. Again, I'll keep you posted.

But that's the situation. Next time I do something like this, I may require payment immediately, to prevent a few absences from delaying the whole field trip.

Shirts!

If/when you do this again, payment with order is definitely the way to go, if only to reduce the headaches for you and whoever's helping you.

No worries about the delay. It will be here in the fullness of time.

I just wish people had been as prompt to pay as they were to order. It would have been so much easier...

I lost the notification for a while. D:O (But I found it some time ago. And paid. I think. I hope. Gah. I have no brainz.)

I think that's a "payment with order" vote. >_>
