Found out late yesterday that this group that I've been working so hard to 
accommodate has been going back & forth between myself and a local golf pro 
shop, playing our quotes against each other-big surprise!  Yes, the same 
group that I've been jumping through hoops for, including pulling together a 
last-minuet
screen-print price that several of you helped me with.  The same group who 
has changed their mind about "finalized" artwork and had me re-do my price 
quote three times, again at the very last minute b/4 a "final decision 
meeting."

Several months ago I decided not to do bids anymore b/c I don't do cheap, 
cra*py work, so I don't give cut-rate prices.  My prices are very 
reasonable, based on my own research and feedback from many of my customers. 
Against my better judgment, I made an exception in this case b/c one of the 
group members is a friend.

Anyway, the group has decided to go with the golf pro guy b/c he said he'll 
embroider THREE large logos (LC, and each sleeve) for a total of $7.00 per 
shirt.
Only catch is, he can't provide the color shirts they need.  One of the 
group members had the nerve to ask me to give them my supplier's name so the 
other guy could contact them for shirts!!! I very sweetly declined, but 
offered to gladly sell them the shirts-at a nice profit for myself-to take 
to their $7.00 embroidery guy.

Bottom line is, I ignored my intuition in the first place & this is where it 
got me.  Live and learn...again.
Maybe this will help some of you avoid what I've been through.

Happy Friday everybody,
