***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





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

Thanks iab for setting this up. I like the instructions for the "Ordering Impaired" group to which I belong.

I'll be getting one for sure.

East Hill

I'll second BlankCrows' motion for the "Ordering Impaired"!

iab - really nice looking jerseys. Wish I wasn't allergic to wool.

cranky old road 

I ordered mine. Thanks iab!

Sammyboy

Excellent! And I have til April 1 to get the cash together? Do they take Paypal?

iab

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

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

Sammyboy

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?

iab

As shown in Step 1, scroll to the bottom of the page to see a sizing chart.

Sammyboy

Apparently the instructions for the "ordering impaired" still aren't Janet and John enough for me. Sorry!

Jet Travis

I was confused too. To see sizes, go to this link and scroll all the way down: https://www.portlandcyclewear.com/page/page/3163257.htm

I'm in for a jersey. Thanks for the fantastic job iab.

Sammyboy

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'll second the thanks to IAB - I can't wait to see my jersey, it all looks fantastic.

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

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.

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?

iab

I am sorry to say if it is sold out, it is sold out. I had to go with my second choice myself.

lotek 

cr@p. . . somehow (I'm instructionally challenged) when I got to
paying it sent the order before I sent credit card of paypal info. . .
and I didn't add the 3.00 surcharge (or paypal). . I'm trying to
contact them.

Marty

iab

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.

East Hill

They're even sold out on some small and medium sizes ! I thought that this would be the one time I would be able to get exactly what I wanted.

East Hill

iab

Sorry about that, I have to blame myself. I was not fast enough designing the jersey.

East Hill

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

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

Edit: I've managed to order my two!

I always wanted a wool jersey. I mainly just lurk in CV, but this was the perfect opportunity to pick one up! I just submitted my order.

East Hill

iab, have we gotten 30 or more jerseys ordered yet?

East Hill

iab

400+ views and only about 12 jerseys ordered. Come on people, I would hate this to be a wash. $67 for a custom wool jersey is a pretty good deal, come get yours today!




(Admittedly, I am a terrible salesperson.)

lotek 

lets see if I can drum up some bidness.

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.
