Amici Veloci - The 2007 Order Thread

[SadieKate]

Ahem, this was the 3rd order for Amici Veloci jerseys. It will be the last. Not probably or maybe or just guessing, but it definitely will be the the last.

Just saying . . . .

DARN.........(that is me whining). I guess I will have to just be happy with the arm warmers then. (smile)

[LBTC]

Imanewcreation is not the only one hoping against hope that there will be an order in a year or two....

There is no way our already strapped budget can handle the purchase of another jersey and armwarmers, no matter how much I want them.

Um, the deadline is the 18th. I know we're in different time zones but . . . .

I posted my message earlier this morning & couldn't remember the deadline...

We appear to have a opening for that position.

I've done all I can do (and i already caught a load of S*** for buying the one I did)

If we are only one jersey off from getting a better price on the ss/sleeveless group, let me know. I'll get an additional style if it means saving us all a couple of $.

Plus, DH can't argue with saving money...right? RIGHT?!

Last count I think we were short 10.
Save your money.

Don't know what the current count is. Miss Snap will have to enlighten us.

We need 50 shortsleeve items for the price to go down on those. Same for the longsleeve but we're a long ways off from making the latter.

Hey, does anybody have the heavier long sleeve jersey (Thermasenror Ultra) and also the Thermal jacket or vest (IsoWint Thermasensor Ultra)? How do they compare? The fabric for the jacket/vest would be really darn heavy to make a jersey. I'm assuming (hoping) that the fabric for the jersey is somewhat lighter.


Edited after reading the Voler site:
Ok Ok. I know I'm answering my own question. I did a little Voler research and thought I would pass this along:

The jacket is made of two fabrics:
It uses IsoWind for the front, collar, sleeve body and back.
It uses Thermasensor Ultra for the side panel, under sleeve panel and pocket.

The Thermasensor Ultra is the same fabric used for the heavier long sleeve jerseys.

Am I going to be the problem child again?

One more ss jersey ordered.

I don't know about that. The first time we did this (2 years ago) we surprised ourselves and hit the target and more - at the last minute. If we do get 50 shortsleeve items ordered, the price for a shortsleeve or sleeveless jersey drops from $87 to $69.50, a $17.50 decrease or half the cost of a pair of armwarmers.

So don't discount this group.

I'd figured that we've had a few more SS/SL sales since the "10" count.

And of course, $69.50 is easier to justify than $87!

(can you tell I'm pulling for us making the 50 pc level?!)
