Send me the PayPal payment with your order info (as described above). That's your order.
I'll post a conformation table here, in my opening message.

Are they long in the back?

Long in back? Hard to tell from their photos.
Here's their example jacket. I haven't seen one "in the wild"

We are up to 3 total already. Being the worried guy I am I feared not hitting the minimum. Now I think it won't be a problem.
Just an endorsement for the jersey. Ordered one last go round. Happened to wear it on last weekend's tune-up ride for AOMM. At the top of the Howard's Gap climb (the hardest one on this particulaar ride), several of my fellow riders were catching our breath beforing turning around to head back down and return to the start. One guy said "I need one of those. But you don't look old enough to be wearin' it."
I replied, "I'm 52, and proud of every year!":D. Wear one of these and let 'em know who you (we) are!!!

I've added a chart at the top of the first message. Please check it a day or two after you order (I'll update it reasonably often) and make sure I got your info right, and that it is there.

Sadly, we abandoned our paypal account several years ago after an identity theft issue. I'm sure the system is fixed, but my wonderful husband will not agree to starting a new account.
Life will go on without a jersey. If, by any chance, someone with an account would accept a money order from me in advance of an order, I will place one through them. I would also pay for all shipping costs and send a self addressed envelope for mailing the jersey to me. If that anyone has plans to be in the Gettysburg area, I can also offer a Civil War expert guided tour of the battlefield. And pie.

Please check the chart in the first message. Let me know if I've erred.
Ok, If I can believe what Paypal is telling me, I'm in for one short sleeve jersey (club fit).

Yup! Got mine in short sleeve jersey. can't wait

Does the vest and jacket have the same design and color of the jersey?

I just ordered a short sleeve, extra large, club cut jersey. What about shipping costs? Does the $60 include this?
Thank you for doing this. What fun! (For us - probably not as much for you.)

Curtis,

Exactly. The jacket will look like a long sleeve jersey, the vest a lot like a sleeveless jersey.
We will be absolutely smashing in our coordinated ensembles.

Perfect!
Father's Day is coming up. I mostly just wanted to bump it up and to print it off for my kids. Incidentally, I realize it will probably not come till after Father's Day and I don't care.

I've updated the list.
Please make sure you're name is there if you ordered.
I'm concerned that I see a few posts by people saying they ordered but I never got their order.
Maybe you used a different name? In any event, please check!

I've updated the chart. I think the payment for some "unverified" buyers (whatever that means) tkes longer to arrive in my account, so do not panic YET.
We have hit our minimum order, which is pretty cool.
You all do know that you are REQUIRED to post a photo of yourself in teh jersey when it arrives, don't you?

Hummmmm. Let's see. This is the 50s forum, right?
I think that answers the question, though there are some possible exceptions.

cccorlew:
Can you tell me what is the main color of the jersey? It looks like a dark rust or a red-brown. How would you describe it?
cccorlew
05-07-08, 11:43 AM
It's very red.
Look around at old threads of 50+ jersey photos. There are lots. Try search.
But it is NOT dark rust or a red-brown.

Got to wondering...
When this batch of jerseys and such is delivered, how many will there be total since the beginning? Any idea?
cccorlew
05-07-08, 09:55 PM
As of right this second the total count for 3 orders is exactly 100.
I haven't added mine in to tis order, so you could say 103. (vest for Tricia, vest and maybe a jacket for me.)

I'm confused. Why did you PayPal me money? I can't return it as PayPal charges for that. You can't just change your mind at this point.

That reminds me of the signs
"No shirt, no shoes, no service."
So, I always wanted to go into the store with just shirt and shoes and see if I could get service!

I thought someone was making a joke, but it's hard to believe they would send money just for a laugh.

It's been a year or so since I've been here, is there any chance of getting in on the jersey order this late??? I'm no sure I'll order one, but want to know if I have the option. What's the drop dead date on ordering one?
[edit] Doh...I just read the original post...I guess I have a few days to decide. Sorry.

I would like to order one. But, I'm 48 (49 in June) and this is the 50+ forum. Can I still order one?
I mostly read this and the Clydes & athena forums every day. Don't write too much.
Both forums are wonderful!

Hey! Updated order list.
Let's see, if there are 100 on the road, at 50 years (min) each, 5000 years of... of.... of... something.
Hey cccorlew, can you change my jersey size from medium to large? Thanks.

Hey Curtis. Where can we check to see if you received our money and our order? I don't see my name on the list at the top of this thread, and one of your posts made me wonder if you had received my money.
I just checked my PayPal account and the money was sent on May 3. I'm not panicking at this point, just hoping for confirmation.
Thanks again.
