Please thank our sponsors Dr Eric and Angela Korpola.

I placed the order for the ones posted in the Discussion thread. Do not repost your order here, just send me PM with your name, address and size confirmation.

Please use this thread to post new orders here.

Sizes available are Youth M and L, Adults S, M, L, XL, XXL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL and 6XL.

The price the supplier gave me last October was Youth M to XL $13, XXL $13.50 and 6XL $17.25. I requested an e-mail with regards to the cost of 3/4XL, as I can't find my notes.

This does not include shipping charges via USPS, Which will wary by zip code, weight in the US or Country.

Bulk shipping is definitely a plus. Please let us know, if you are willing to cover a Country or just your Team.

Eric didn't take long to say Yes to this endeavor. He did ask me two questions.
1) Why are you willing to do all this work? Because I love to give back to this project on behave of all the volunteers, while we are waiting for the Nobel Prize.

2)Can you ask if Setizens are willing to add a little donation to the order? At that point he gave me a little history lesson of where Seti funding started(or least staff level, when he started at the UNI and what it is now.)

Eric and Angela also wanted you to know that everything is at Cost, so every extra amount you may wish to add, will go straight to Seti.

(We can have 2009 Anni Shirts, but the minimum order is 144. Post your interest, we might make is someday. Different shirt colors are available, but black is the best back ground color.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart to all that made this happen.
Pluto will always be a planet to me.

I give thanks to our sponsors 'Darth' Eric and 'Witchie Poo' Angela Korpela. Sorry I could not resist some embellishment.

So $17.25 for the 6XL size, that seems to be about what I thought, hopefully mailing won't go over $4.90 or $22.15 total, if it does, I'll figure something out, as that is what I have budgeted for May 30th.

Since I can't look like a spammer, I can only send out so many confirmation requests per day. Thank you to all, who so far responded.
I based my initial order on the interested part. I already came across some additions and correction.

No worries. If you didn't post an interest and wish to order a shirt, PM me with size, quantity, name and address. We are possibly up to 20% of a second order.

Paypal is the preferred option. Checks within the USA are fine, so are Money orders from Canada. If that still don't work for you, I am quite creative. If you want a shirt or two, we can make it happen.

With regards to donations. If your donation is above $10 please contribute via the Berkeley site. If you still wish to make it via Paypal any amount, please do so.
I will keep a record to take to CV in September. Eric didn't say he would give you all Green Stars, but then again, he didn't say No either.

Failed to mention. I am working on Bulk shipments. Of course privacy concerns are an issue.
So far I have Philadelphia/South NJ, UK, Germany, Holland/Netherlands, France and Australia, possibly New Zealand too.

From what I learned so far, individual shipping from the USA might be cheaper.

Thank you Chris. We determined that shipping within the UK is about a third cheaper.
Plus there should not be any Customs issues, which was a problem in 2009.

Also a big Thank You to Mike, who is willing to handle the Germany end.

For others that made the offer privately, I can't disclose details here and only will exchange info on a need to know basis.
So please, if you are willing to take on Bulk shipments and distribution let us know here.

The Shirts should be ready for pick up tomorrow. For those that have confirmed so far, expect a PM from me.
I will post Zone Fees here, for those I have not contacted yet.
With the confirmations I received so far, I will have a fair idea of shipping costs.

This order was based on Interested Parties. I will ship on a first come first paid order tho for this batch.

I am working on a second order, so Please continue with "I am interested".

Just to make it clear. The Shirts are at cost plus shipping. Anything extra will got to Seti.

Thank you to those who have done so.

Feel free to let other Setizens know here. My lips are zipped, except for confirmation.

Thank you again for your interest. Our sponsors sure didn't expect, how much some of us like a Momento.

I want to express my appreciation to Uli for all the hard work, to Eric and Angela for sponsoring it, to Chris and whoever else is helping out with international distribution, and to anyone who donates anything extra.

I just can't get myself to pull the trigger on something I know I'll never use. (Sorry, I just don't like t-shirts. I like golf and polo shirts for the open neck.)

Murphy is hard at work.
I got some shipments ready and if I have payment confirmation they will go out tomorrow.
Right now I am working on single Shirts, while I looking for cheaper and larger envelopes.
Please send me a confirmation once you have the Shirt/s.
Once again, I will not be shipping in the last part of May.

Personal delivery might be possible in the UK, Belgium, Holland, France and Germany.
A bulk shipment is in the works for Australia and New Zealand. Ditto for any Countries mentioned above.

So far a xxl will set you back $19.50
A YM to XL $17 a piece.

That is for single piece shipping only.

David, you can have the last shirt. All you have to do is meet me at the Airport. Won't happen this Year, but who knows about 2019 ;)

It doesn't look good. The show is produced by CBS and on the show's web page they sell T-shirts, many T-shirts, with a Big Bang theme.

That isn't the point David. It is a memento and a souvenir of a project that you belong to. You don't HAVE to wear it, just treasure it.

I keep telling myself that, but I'm not quite believing it. I have a lot of other t-shirts I thought I would treasure, and I don't.

Still, since it's the only kind of memento I'm likely to ever get...

The next question is, do I spend the extra money for one that will fit me now, knowing I won't wear it, or do I buy a smaller one and dream of the day it will fit me (by which time I might be willing to wear it)? By then, we might well be on the 20th anniversary. Or 25th.

(Surprisingly, I've become something of a hat collector in the last few years. I never used to wear them, partly because it's also hard to find hats that fit me, but I'm looking at them more since becoming diabetic and occasionally buying ones I will treasure even if they don't fit me. I'm even buying some I will treasure with no intention of wearing them so they don't get dirty, worn, lost, etc. (This is why I asked Uli if we could get hats. But she said no and I don't mean to sound like I'm still bugging her about it.) The hat I'm wearing most of the time lately is Bourbon Street, New Orleans, which almost fits me. I spent all day yesterday wearing my Illinois Railway Museum Volunteer hat, because I was on duty there, but I don't wear it otherwise because it fits poorly.)

Mine came today, it fits fine too and the shirt looks good with black jeans, though the shirt is a bit darker than My current pair, but that isn't a problem.

Edit: Thanks for the shirt...
