Imy “ROCK” t-shirt pre-orders start on March 9th!
By Irma on March 8th, 2009Posted In: blog
That’s right! That’s tomorrow! When you see tomorrow’s strip, you’ll see a banner underneath announcing the opening of pre-orders! Just click on that and you’ll be on your way to owning your very own Imy “ROCK” t-shirt.
The pre-orders will only be open for 1 week. From March 9th through March 15th. I don’t want to extend pre-orders beyond that since it will delay the t-shirts even more. I plan on having other pre-order periods in the future depending on demand.
The following information will also be found on the pre-order page.
Why Pre-orders?
This way everyone who wants a shirt will get one. The combination of shirt styles and sizes makes it impossible for me to guess an average of which ones I need to order. This way I will know exactly what I need, and you’ll be able to order the correct size for yourself based on the size chart.
How long will it take you to receive your t-shirt?
I don’t know an exact time, but I will estimate about a month. The reason for this is that after I take the pre-orders, I have to order the t-shirts. That should take about a week, if everything is in stock. Once I receive those, I have to take them to the printers to be printed. That will take another week. Finally, once I receive the completed t-shirts, I will be able to send them out. Expect that it will take another week max for the t-shirt to reach you. I will let each person know when their order has been shipped.
T-shirt information:
T-shirts are from Fruit of the Loom. 100% cotton and 165gram/m.

From Ordering to Shipping
Like I said earlier, I can only estimate how long it will take for now. I will keep everyone updated through posts on this site where I am in the process. If anything goes wrong during the process I will inform you and, if necessary, offer a full refund.
If you have any other questions please feel free to email me at: irma(AT)imycomic.com and I will answer as soon as possible.
I’ll hopefully be hearing about a new job this week, and if all goes well I’ll be able to make a pre-order =) If not I’ll have to wait for next time =(
I thought the world was abondoning the dollar in favor of the Euro or maybe the Yuan. Represent and make us convert from Kronors. You throw all this metric mumbo at us but yield to the dollar, I just don’t get what kind of mind games you’re playing here. You could quote delivery time in Martian years.
LOL, I’m just trying to keep people on their toes! And this way everyone feels comfortable with SOME bit of it
I chose Dollars simply because of the majority of my customers being in the US. I was going to charge different currencies for different regions, but decided to make it uniform, and the dollar was best for this. I was going to convert all the measurements to inches to have next to the cm measurements, but then I figured every ruler and measuring tape I’ve ever owned in the US came with both inch AND cm on them, so I needn’t waste my time.
But seriously, I think next time I WILL do kronor. I knew from the beginning that I’m taking a big risk here. Right now the dollar is very strong compared to the krona, so it’s well. But if it drops significantly this week, then I’m in trouble. But I went in knowing that. I’ll just see what happens!
