JSAR Large Coffee Mugs Anyone?

[Rarecat 0]

Was playing around on CafePress and ordered 10 of these.  My cost was about $12.50 each.  Estimated delivery is mid-January.  If they look good I'll let you guys have at it

My wife would say, "What? Another coffee cup?" Count me in, possibly for 2.

How about hats?  Or jackets or shirts?  Or possibly even nice custom rifle cases.  That would interest me!!!

Well, I guess CafePress doesn't like the image, my order was cancelled because of "Content Usage Policy Violation"

I don't give up that easy. I'm protesting the decision and asking for an explanation

and here is the reply:

Thank you for contacting CafePress! I am sorry your image is in blocked status, due to falling outside of our Content Usage Policy guidelines, and am more than happy to assist.

I'm sorry, however your image was blocked because of the image of the gun in your design. As we continue our site cleanup, we are enforcing our Content Usage Policy by not allowing images of guns on our website. Due to the amount of content on our site, it may take time for these changes to reflect to our visitors.

We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. If you were trying to place an order, there is no need to worry about your payment authorization being refunded as it was not processed due to the cancellation of your order.

New order placed with Zazzle, 10 Mugs and a single T Shirt....crossing my fingers

I am certain you can find a non politically correct company that will would be happy to accommodate this. Let me know and I’ll help look.

At the risk of making a complete fool of myself (nothing new about that) and being now age 81 which qualifies me as being an old fool anyway, I am happy to provide you with a letter saying that (a) the patents have long been expired, (b) people have been "borrowing" Dad's ideas for years, and (c) you have family permission to use the designs on coffee cups, T-shirts, toilet seat covers, etc. etc.     Several years ago, Joe Scott had T-shirts made up with Johnson Rifles on them. Walt Liss had some shirts made up. I think it is an over-reaction by an over-sensitive company to send you that kind of correspondence. There has to be someone out there with more common sense.  Ed J

"I'm sorry, however your image was blocked because of the image of the gun in your design."

Nothing to do with infringement of anything, it's all about being "woke."

I found Zazzle.com (who have gun related products) and placed a new order for 10 mugs and a T Shirt.  Ordered a single shirt as a test to see how well the image transfers.  It will cost a buck more per mug but they seem good to go.  Mid January delivery, stay tuned for further updates

I love a guy who, when told he can't have something, goes to another door to find it. Happy New Year!    :-)))))

Mug order has shipped, will post pictures once I get them in my hands

[ArtR 0]

Could definitely take 2. Got the bosses okay!

Me too.

Mugs are due on Monday, T-shirt is supposed to be here today but tracking looks doubtful.  Once I get them in hand and can inspect them, I'll know if they are worthy of sale.  

 

I had my neighbor isolate another image which might make a better mug/shirt/whatever.... How do you like this one?  Would you prefer the JSAR schematic or photo?

[ArtR 0]

While it is a great photo, for a mug ( or T-shirt) I think that the schematic has more visual impact...JMHO

Wouldn't that make a real small schematic? And almost impossible to see or read on a cup or t-shirt?

[Rarecat 0]

The new image would look something like this on a mug...

Schematic mug should look like this...

Based on these photos and knowing that nothing, including lettering on a coffee mug, lasts forever after several washings, I think I prefer the rifle itself rather than the schematic, but I'll probably take both. Frank, I think you said you had some stuff coming in to you? So should we buy that stuff from you, or go with the Zazzle page you sent us and order from them? Standing by for directions. I'm already mailing you poster $$.....

Thanks Ed.  My test T Shirt from Zazzle arrived today and I'm not satisfied with it, the image is smaller than shown in the sample picture.  The test run of 10 mugs are due in Monday and I'm hoping the image will transfer better than I experienced with the shirt.  I'll advise once I have a chance to examine the mugs

[ArtR 0]

As always, hoping for the best....

JSAR Schematic Mugs arrived today and they look pretty good.   I'm working on building a Zazzle Store which will have mug size and JSAR/LMG image options.  I've ordered test mugs of the other two images and once they arrive and meet my approval I'll post a link to the store and you can order direct from Zazzle.  Sorry it's taken so long but I think it will be worth the wait

[ArtR 0]

I like what I see and cannot wait to purchase and receive

Frank, I'll buy 2 schematic mugs and 2 "image" mugs, either from you or Zazzle. Just let me know how much. You might already have poster $$ by now.   Ed J
