 |
|
Someone was supposed to get a batch made and sell them...I want one...
This was a sticker with the word Westfalia and a Dead VW steal your face combined into 1 graphic....
VWaddict was doing them and JTosh asked this same question 2 weeks ago and got no replies.....

I got mine from this guy a few months back. autocustomz send him an email and he will hook it up. I know he ordered a pantload and they came out awesome!!! I know he got into a battle with someone else on the site who said they ordered them as well. Either way he has them and I am 100% satisfied with the ones i got!!

I will NOT get one from autocustomz as he stole the idea from VWAddict. Unless VWAdiict dropped the ball and gave up after autocustomz stole his idea.....

Shameless hijack, but slightly relevant, since this also came up in that thread - I have plenty of Air Cooled Search & Rescue Team stickers left-
PM for details...

I am going to take that Jpeg and send it to my buddy and see if he can reproduce it. Can I get a size that every one would like? Please note, I am not taking anyone's idea, just taking the ball and rolling with it. In the event one of the above can provide these then I will stop my progress.
As well at this point I do not know what the set up fee will be, so I am just in the research stage to see if I can pull it off in a cost effective manner for all!
Another question is, does it have to be more than 1 color? Single colors is cheaper than 2
Should be able to do the same for Dormobile, Riva ETC!

My buddy is too expensive on the set up fee, I would have to sell way to many of these to break even  Sorry, it was worth a try!

I'm still looking for a sticker I had on a van about 8 years ago...got it at a "Dead" revival.
It was a front view of a flower-power bus, with a skeleton driver and a skeleton dog passenger, both puffing on a fatty....it was too cool!

I did not mean to piss anyone off! I wanted a sticker and those 2 guys started going all nutty on eachother for stealing ideas and what not. All I said is that I wanted one and autocustomz said he already had them. I am not sure if the design was VWadiict's or not. If it was then I agree that it's totally jacked up to take someone's idea. If it wasn't and it's a battle to see who gets them first and who can sell them then good luck. Either way autocustomz hooked me up and I can't complain. He even threw in a free one!!

This was a subject that I had hoped had been resolved. The idea was not stolen at all. If you read the original post, then you will see that I did not realize that he had ordered some of these to sell. I was trying to help a fellow Samba member that had asked if anyone could reproduce them for him. I did not advertise the decals were availabe after it was brought to my attention that he had placed an order for the decals.
However, it has now been 2 1/2 months since he stated he had ordered them and that they would be for sell from him. I checked recently and he has not offered them for sale. They are still available for $5 each with shipping being $2 for as many as you want. |

I consider calling someone a thief to be a VERY serious statement, especially in an open forum. This was nothing but a misunderstanding. I did not offer these decals for sale after it was brought to my attention.
Since your statement was made in an open forum, I will give you the opportunity to retract it in kind. |
