It doesn't make the customer happy but we all have to learn that we can't be everything to everybody, and that not everything can be easily attained at wholesale prices. and if they want it they should just buy it bring it in and have it embroidered. that way it is up to the customer to hunt down all the right sizes and colors. one or two times of this and I usually have people willing to listen to alternatives at that point! and don't forget to charge more for embroidering on provided goods since you don't make any mark up on the blanks.
