Hey all. I got my Goldstar T-shirt today and it got me thinking that BRM should have an online store, Where you can purchase stuff with your mobpoints. I would happily trade in some of my points for a cool BRM T-shirt and wear it when i went out which would make me a walking advertisement for this great site
I also was thinking that if i won that 500,000 member comp i could of worn a BRM t-shirt to that event and that would of been more advertising for the site.
If this has been suggested in the past I apologize. What does everyone think? Admin: would it be something worth considering?

This was discussed earlier and we were also in talks with a guy in Canada (I believe) who offered doing a lot of work for a cut of the sales. But in the end we decided it was not worth it at the time, we don't have time and don't believe it's worth the effort (ROI wise), plus the price of t-shirts might even be too high for most people wanting to buy.
So the best we can do is to open one of those shops where you just get a link and can upload your designs, and somebody else handles payments, printing and shipping. But you'll have to pay with money, not Mob Points.

Ah ok then Thanks for your reply.
Just thought it would be cheaper for you's to get a bunch printed out and offer them for say 2k points. Then you would not have to be paying out that $20 when someone hits 5k points and then uses it on a site where they are not affiliated with this site so you wouldn't see any benefit from their cash out. Does this make sense? Lol

I'm thinking this would have it's props! I sure there's pros and cons, but would think the pros would be well above the cons. I'd where a nice $30.00 button up shirt that had BRM or Bankrollmob.com on the pocket or on the sleeve cuffs. I'm sure most everyone in the forum would get a $20.00 to $25.0 T-shirt. This could even be a nice thick shirt.
Also, calendars, hats and bandana's would be a stepping stone in the right direction to evaluate the demand. It just seems like a lot of people in the U.S. are looking for some stepping stone to playing poker on-line, but there's not adequate advertising.

You should get a GoldStar hickey tattooed in gold ink on the left side of your neck just below your chin like on the ringy-thingy around your avatar pic at the tables on PokerStars...It would go good with the T-Shirt...
...now THAT would look real gangsta....I mean Mobsta...

I remember to discuss this earlier, but i was thinking another thing: you BRM mind if someone pick one of BRM's brandmark images and do a T-shirt with it? No one wants to joke with the site so it would always be good for it, and, plus, those who are going to real events, like the guy who guessed the 500,000 member date, he could print a t-shirt himself to go to the event, it would be awesome, and i guess he wouldn't mind, i wouldn't!

There is a niche in the market here but at the moment Im not able to progresss the idea I have in my head but will work on it in terms of finding a solution to this.
Needs some work to it, we could kinda agree the design and then depending on how many people wanted one would determine the initial cost.
If a Mob Member ran it, could people pay with mobpints to the member that the member could then cash out?
