Almost 300 of them, actually. The preorder period was over and it's official - Our Mad (About Reading) Cow was our fastest selling shirt ever! It's also part of an experiment about shifting over to preordering merchandise, so please bear with us as we feel our way through it. Already we've made at least one big mistake - we set the price for the women's shirts waaaay too low. We won't lose any money, I hope, but if we do a second printing (which seems likely) prices will definitely go up.

I'll spend the morning sorting through orders in the database, making the corrections some people asked for and hand-entering in the mail orders. Then I'll send the order off to our printer. We hope to have them sent off no later than two weeks from now, sooner if everything goes perfectly. But how often does that happen?
