    Ok members we have ordered the mugs through a separate Vendor than we started with. To be short they turned out to not be honest in their dealings. ( too good to be true...) Our original estimate was set at $5 a mug however that was based on the original production quote. Our new production cost is more for the batch of mugs.

    Out of respect for you guys and because we don't want to go back on our word of $5 a mug we have voted and decided to put it to you guys. Would you be ok at $6 a mug? If so we will adjust the cost. We only ask because all of the FHC merchandise is out of pocket by us Mods and we use any extra profit to pay for the next items such as shirts and hopefully hoodies soon.

    I WILL NOT raise the price if you members are not ok with it! We do this for you guys and are non profit so thank you in advance for being a great community!

    You charge what is needed to pay for them. I don't see any need for you guys to get stuck paying out of pocket for any of this. Is PayPal set up for this so we can start covering the cost?
    Please post instructions.

    We paid about 40k$ of our daughter's college costs and all we got was some coffee mugs, t shirts and sweat shirts so to me 6$ is a bargain. :ups:

    It will be set up soon, we are doing the pre-orders again soon. Once I have the list of those who pre-ordered I will add you to a.....<insert technical jargon> and you will seen a different version of the Swag Shoppe that will allow you to order your mugs.

    Nonetheless it's all laid out except for two things:

    1. We need to finalize the price.

    2. Pete isn't quite done with the pre-order list.

    $6-7 bucks will work. It's cheaper than any other accessory I buy for my wood cutting addiction

    Cover the cost and make $1-2 on them. No reason for you guys to do it all and not make something for the site.
