Title: AP Beenies & AP Sports Caps !
Post by: Caveoftreasures on March 18, 2014, 07:44:17 PM
the old thread for Beenies was here

http://aussiepinball.com/index.php?topic=7194.0

But, this year, assuming Nick and Nino approve me for another run of the Aussie Pinball Beenies and AP Caps.
I wanted to get peoples opinions/interest.

I was going to charge cost, then add on a few dollars to pay some donations towards the forums growth/new software upgrades.

The beenies would probably be $15 and the caps apx $20.

I will send BNIB samples to Nick and Nino again.

These products will look really smart for sure.

Let us know what u think.

I believe Nick/Nino wanted the official colours to stay red/black with the professional stitching/embroidery coloured accordingly.

Let me know interest, then I will get the mods to give me the go ahead.

(p.s- if u didn't get one last time, u will definitely get one this time).

glad u can get the occasional use out of it.

beenies are a bit like woollen gloves n raincoats/decent thick socks, not used much, but when ya need them, and its firkin freezing, they feel like a million bux.lol

I have a black beanie I have had for almost 20 yrs. I bought it on the day that Australia supports the fallen Police Officers who passed away in the line of fire etc. Its a nice beanie, embroided well n fits my freezing mug well in winter.Over the years I have had cops stop me for traffic or speeding or something and I have been wearing it, and they usually are respectful and give me a warning. The proceeds of those beenies/various clothes lines, go to the families of the fallen Police officers.

Hence the idea for a beanie this time round again, with a cap.
Beenie keeps ya noggin warm, or ya hands if you have no gloves. Cute invention from mr sheep out in the paddock.lol

I'm in Sydney right now, waiting for my plane to leave ;)

I'll just have to make do with my AC/DC Aussie tour tee as my sole bit of australiana while I'm there! Also brought some Tim Tams, Redskins and Vegemite for Nate from the Coast 2 Coast Pinball podcast :D

I'll still grab some merch when I get back, though!

Ok. Well, we gave it our best shot.

Best idea now is to get the USA guys to write down their full postal addresses whilst you are over in the USA visiting and for when u get home, then we can send them over some Aussie Pinball Beenies n Caps in assorted colours.
Presents for our pinball brothers overseas will be at cost, even less money etc.

PM me when U get back. Hope u have a great trip buddy, and don't forget to log on from the USA, start a thread, upload a few photos whilst you are over there and even a few stories etc.
Wotto, one of our long term members , is FAMOUS for his most excellent AP USA tour threads.

Have fun, stay safe, and really enjoy your USA trip.
I am sure I casn speak for everyone on AP in wishing u an absolute UNREAL n FUN trip to the USA.  ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^
