***REMINDER: If you are paying with PayPal or check, you MUST pay $5.00 more than the final listed price. If you are paying with a credit card, the additional $5.00 will automatically be added to your charge.***
If you don't add the additional $5.00 to your PayPal or check amount, your jersey can't be processed. For an explanation, see below. If you have already paid without the $5.00, please send it as soon as possible. This cannot be automatically added to your PayPal payment or check.

Before you order, there are a couple things to know. First is ordering can be done up to April 1, but some styles in certain sizes have sold out. I would order as soon as possible.

Second, there will be an additional $5.00 per jersey surcharge added to the final cost you see when ordering (you will see it on your credit card, and you need to add the additional $5.00 to your PayPal payment or check). $3.00 is for an additional shipping charge for drop shipping a bulk order and $2.00 is for a set-up cost of the custom logo. For example, if your final cost on the website is $62.00, your credit card will be billed $67.00 and you need to make your PayPal payment $67.00.

Finally, we need to hit over 30 jerseys total, otherwise we will have to reorder at a higher price. This will be clearer when you see how to order below.

Assuming we hit 30 jerseys and a base shipping charge of $6 (that is the cost from Portland to Chicago, your price will depend on your zip code), the cost for a jersey will be as follows:
Short sleeve - $39.50 (jersey) + $13 (embroidery) + $6 (shipping) + $5 (surcharge) = $63.50
Long Sleeve - $43.00 (jersey) + $13 (embroidery) + $6 (shipping) + $5 (surcharge) = $67.00

The jersey colors and styles are as follows. Not all jerseys are pictured.
Short sleeve – horizontal or vertical stripe, black/cream stripe, academy blue/cream stripe, emerald green/cream stripe, deep red/black stripe, light orange/black arms, or navy blue/red stripe

Long sleeve – horizontal stripe only, black/cream stripe, academy blue/cream stripe, emerald green/cream stripe, deep red/black stripe, light orange/black stripe, or navy blue/red stripe

http://www.h3odesign.com/Misc_Images/03_Ordering.jpg



The logo color options are as follows. You MUST list this when ordering. Not all logo/jersey combinations are illustrated.

Yes, they take PayPal. You need til April? Rumour has it you sold some crappy old aluminium bottle for $50 :eek: ;)

Also, be prepared, your shipping to the UK will probably be at least $10 more than mine to Chicago.

Yeah, true, but at the moment, I need every penny I make in my various roles to pay bills and feed the ridiculous gaping maw of the legal profession (who would've thought that a divorce where everything was agreed in advance and absolutely nothing was contested could still cost > $5000?).

An amazingly kind benefactor has offered to buy me a jersey however, so I am indeed a happy man today! How can we tell what size we need?

Yeah, that pretty much means we're stoopid though. It says it right bold and plain there in the first pic. It just goes to show that you can't make things simple enough no matter how hard you try! :)

I posted this above, but it needs to be said again.

You weren't kidding about them selling out. For those of us that hit the snooze, will the stock be replenished before April 1st or is what they have available now our only choice?

It is actually a $5.00 surcharge.

Also, if you pay with a credit card, Chad will manually add the $5.00 to your bill, you don't have to do anything. If you pay with PayPal, YOU must add the $5.00 surcharge to your PayPal payment, Chad has no control over that charge to your PayPal account.

It's all right, you were nice enough to do all the work for us :D , and I, for one, really appreciate it.

Besides, I can always get a larger size...and shrink it! You guys can't do that :p .

Edit: I've managed to order my two!

I saw this when lotek posted it to the 50+ forum. I asked a question there, but it is probably better asked here.

When one specifies that they want the logo "Classic Vintage" then it is automatically assumed that Portland will add the "bikeforums.net" logo under it? I didn't see anyway to specifically order this.

Or am I just misreading this and there is no "bikeforums.net" logo, just the "Classic & Vintage" logo? I think I might have gotten confused from the lettering options in the first post.

Yes. BikeForums.net is a part of the design and you don't have to specifically tell Portland to add it. Also, for those who may be wondering, it can't be removed, you get "Classic & Vintage" and "BikeForums.net".

Yes. Shipping will obviously be more, but the website will calculate the shipping when you check out. I believe Sammyboy has ordered one and will be sent to jolly old England. Maybe he'll post his shipping cost.

I'm not ordering a jersey, I have enough already, so this isnt' any of my business, but...

I'd be careful calling anything a surcharge here. Paypal and many states prohibit surcharges on purchases made with credit cards. Part of the agreement with Paypal is that you will not charge a extra fee for using Paypal.

Maybe if you call it a "handling fee"??

There is no surcharge for using PayPal or your credit card. It is for drop shipping and a set-up fee for the custom design. Call it what you want.

It is the way it is worded that may make it illegal. Since it is called a surcharge and says it is applicable when using Paypal, it makes the legality open to interpretation.

I didn't mean any offense, just trying to help prevent a problem.

Again, the surcharge has nothing to do with the form of payment. It is perfectly clear that it is for shipping and set up and it won't autmatically show on the final amount in the checkout process. Please don't let your confusion inhibit any potential buyers. There is NOTHING illegal about this, there is no problem.

Read your own statement:

If you are paying with PayPal, you MUST pay $5.00 more than the final listed price.

I think the only one confused is who wrote that sentence.


I lost my Paypal account due to a similar misunderstanding in the way I worded something.

Take the suggestion or leave it.

It doesn't affect anyone PURCHASING anything. Only the seller gets in trouble.

What you really want to say is shipping and handling is $11.00....Period.

Were you selling on eBay when you lost your account? I think this is only illegal in a few states, like CA, where eBay is located.

Anyways, Portland Cyclewear is the one selling them, not iab. Also, iab made it clear that the $5 gets added to your bill regardless of what method you use to pay for it. I don't think this is that confusing. I also don't see how PCW could lose their PP account because of something someone else posted on a different website.

Geez, all I'm trying to do is help a fellow biker, doing a favor for other bikers, from getting into any hot water. Doesn't matter how he puts it in the paragraph following the above statement.

I'm not trying to be critical or a party-pooper, but trying to help.

I'm not confused at all. How this thread's first post was written, copied and pasted above, is exactly what Paypal doesn't want to see. That's not confusing....it states clearly that if you are paying with Paypal, you MUST add $5.00

Postage to the UK was $18. Your mileage may vary, but it should be around that level.

I'll check again on Monday, we have until April 1 to get to 30. I would like a little buffer though.

How about convincing your friends and family how cool it is, I am working on my brother-in-law.

The bad news - no new orders since last week.

The worse news - nearly 1000 views & 10 jerseys ordered. I blame it on the design;) :)

Our options - assuming we get 2 more orders by April 1, it will cost an extra $8 for the jersey and an extra $4.25 for the custom artwork. If we don't want to pay for the custom artwork, we can have block lettering as seen here http://www.portlandcyclewear.com/catalog/item/2010300/2359114.htm Or we could bag the whole thing. My vote is to pay the extra $12.25 (worse case scenerio, if more people buy, the price will go down). The nine others, let me know what you think via PMs. Thank you.

I agree. I would buy the red one with the black stripe, but the XL/R is not available.

Also, I'm confused about the embroidery. It gives me the option of white or black script only. The options aren't the same as what is shown in the example.

If you're really interested, you might want to check again. To me, it looks like in the long sleeve all are available in XL/R and in the short sleeve only black with chest stripe are unavailable in that size? Also, follow the directions for Step 6 and type in your color scheme selection. My 2 cents...
