Hi Guys
Has there ever been such a product as a My Swag Flag.
Would like to get 1 to put up beside my Aussie Flag on camper
-
This has come up a few times, and I'm sure there would be plenty of demand if something was produced, but no one seems real interested in following it up.
Missed merchandising opportunity I think!
-
If it ever happens, count me in :D
-
Yep, I put in an offer to assist with a banner at no cost - the site owner didn't even reply to my email!
Offer withdrawn! >:D

Sounds similar to the wheel covers Dan >:( I know who did all of the investigation into them, but guess who gets the thankyou's >:D

I'm happy to look into it as we get real estate flags made up so I know of a guy that will give me a good price on them.
Something like 50cm by 25cm??

Don't know what the rest were thinking, but I thought at least twice that size.
-
Here's an example of the size. This is of Ketsi's camp on Fraser Island.

I'm assuming that DANBRI and 73bubba's comments were done as a joke? I'd hope so.
If not, then all I can say is the bitchyness on this forum needs to stop. I think it's great that everyone's able to have an opinion, but honestly, let's get this back to what it was, a great place for anything camper trailer oriented that we all liked to visit all the time, to share thoughts, experiences, mishaps etc.
I think the mods do a great job on this forum, and I know that Brett and others did a great job by setting this forum up. I guess what I'm saying is don't cut your nose off to spite your face.
Oh, and I agree with Gunna Do, probably twice the size that you mentioned JKhon!!!
Cheers

A flag would be a great idea especially at Fraser would make a great camping marker for those late night returns after a few beverages when the wife is driving and i'm enjoying myself to much to concentrate on anything else but drinking :cheers: :cheers:
-
I agree, it needs to be full size and we would definitely be up for one as well :cup: . I don't have any such contacts but will support the project by buying at least one for the camper and one for the shed / man cave ;D
-
Count me in for two flags if the idea gets of the ground
-
My thoughts are for a small triangular flag that could attach to a fly or awning rope about the size the kids get when completing a sports season.
Like a pennant ?
GS
-
Count me in for a couple if it happens. :laugh:
-
I'd be interested as well.
Ross

I will do some homework on costs with some manufactures and promise not to complain ;D

-
The design is already done, we just need to get them made up.
-
I'll drink to that! :cheers:
-
We" ll take one if anyone gets them made up
-
Just got the first quote back.
For a 50cm x 100cm flag with a sleeve going up the left hand side in 200D material single sided is $30each (minimum order of 50).

Thanks JK,
Can we get a squis at the design?
Cheers Paul
-
I've asked for that - shouldn't be too far away.
-
I will be up for one :cheers: ehsc

Here is what they sent me - the writing up the top says "Sleeve hole 2" open bottom closed top"
How we make our flags:
* The flag materials we use are the most durable available on the market.
* The dye has UV inhibitors to make sure your colours last.
* The dye is then heat set at 400 degrees to lock in the vibrancy of the colours.
* Then your flag is chemically processed to ensure the longevity.

Can they do the outside of the Myswag emblem in red rather than white? Just a thought!
Looks good though.
-
Good work John,
You'll have to put us down for one.
:cup:
-
I will take one if they happen...
Bill and Morag
-
Ill take one to but if we all get them how are we going to find our own ct after a few :cup:
-
If it gets of the ground (no pun intended) id be defo keen on 1.
Swanny
-
Yep you can put us down for 2
Deb
-
Excellent!!!
Put me down for 2!! :cup:
-
I would have one. Would there be a royalty paid to Brett for the forum.
-
You would think anything with the Myswag brand on it would have to have Brett's endorsement before its production.
-
That is what I was referring to Snow, the $30 to make the flag probably would not be enough to cover it, I would think. ???
-

Agreed and I had already PM'd him.
-

If Brett owns the design...
(http://www.clixtracking.com/images/myswagflag.gif)
... it would definitely need his approval.
-
If you can make it happen I will take one. But I would love it sooner rather than later ;) . I would really like it before December to carry the my swag flag so to speak.
-
My hand's up... I'll take one.
-
Have just sent away for a Quote for X25, can someone tell me if anyone "legally" own the MySwag logo.
(http://www.clixtracking.com/images/myswagflag.gif)
Cheers,
Richard.
-
You will have to contact Brett? I would also be keen for one, great for running meets.....
-
Count on us for one ;D
-
2 for me if it goes ahead, please

Ill take one to but if we all get them how are we going to find our own ct after a few :cup:
Mine would be the camper trailer under the tallest flag pole.
NOT that I' am competitive or anything ;D
Bill and Morag
-
How tall? >:D
-
I'm in for one as well.
Gary

Got a email back it said,
Hi Richard
I think we have given you a proof and a quote yesterday?
Jason Littlewood | Sales |
Australian flag Makers
So I gather that someone else from MySwag has asked for a quote?

Well my friend that depends on how tall your flag pole is.
Bill
-
I might make mine adjustable then. ;D :cup:
-
Count me in for 1. Great idea so the little 1 knows where his camper is
-
Any idea on how this is going?
-
Hey Guys,
I know flags have been brought up many time before and we will endeavour to get the flags flying soon.
Thanks for Jkohn doing the leg work and he has past on the info to me. I have only had a quick look at the info but hope to go over it in the next few days between night shifts.
-
I was only thinking about the flag yesterday, as it would have been good to have one for our Christmas get together. :cheers:

Thats not going to happen... With 4 1/2 Weeks until Christmas.
-
I think this is a great idea guys.
At least we know there are more of us.
-
That is no excuse Brett, >:D chop, chop you can do this, ;D Mind you though you only have two weeks to get then for our get together though. :cheers:

Hi Brett, I think it should be money up front with order so you are not out of pocket, based on that I will have one please ;D

x eleventy
... but if your buying in bulk to save coin, that wont happen. buying them as ordered would probably end up costing a bomb.

You missed the point here, you won't by in ones and twos you wold have a cut off date and those that paid in that period would get ordered and then you would buy those in bulk, why should Brett have to outlay his own money and then wait for payment, and what about those who ordered and don't pay, Brett is left holding the flag.
Still believe money up front and if I have to wait a couple of months till the flag arrives then I prefer to do that than have someone else out of pocket.
Or negotiate a deal the same as the wheel covers and order and pay for your own
That my opinion anyway
-
CRW I know where you are coming from, I know I wouldn’t mind paying for my flag first. That would give Brett the choice if he himself wishes to have extra flags for stock to sell later on
-
I am prepared to pay for a flag up front. :cheers:
-
I am prepared to pay for a flag up front. :cheers:

I'm also happy too pay up front.
-
Same here :D
-
Sorry to say this but. All I want to know is are we doing this? If so what is the cost? Where do I send the money? and When do you need it by?
If we are going to get them stop ginning around and just do it. I don't even know who has organised this or anything so I don't even know who to thank. If it has Brett's permission to run with then it is OK. Someone just needs to say right I am ordering 30 of these to get them at $x.00 Whos's in, problem solved and we have flags underway. Postage wont be much more than $8.00 for a flag as it folds up pretty small and doesnt weigh much.
If no one is doing this how do I unsubscribe to this thread ;D
-
I'm in and happy to pay upfront......
-
TOY80ST - read post #53 - that will give you all the answers you are looking for.
-
I'm also happy to pay upfront!
Lets go!!!!!
:cheers:
-
Pay up front...? way-t-go

The short answer is...the Flags are getting organised ASAP. Brett's last set of days off from work were spent on the Forum Upgrade and this days off will be spent on the Flags including determining size, design and what the minimum bulk order will be to ensure that we get them at a good price for everyone. As soon as he knows price and approx ETA he will post up on the Forum.

Thanks Jillsy,
I thought Brett didn't have the time for this and someone had already done the leg work. I appreciate you letting me know what is happening.
Cheers Paul

Do you know how high I can with my flag pole before I' am considered in the flight plath?
I would then need to put a flashing red light on top of my flag pole.
Also does anyone know if I would need to use 6 B&S cable for said light? ;D
Bill and Morag
-
If you use LED's Bill you should get away with 4 B&S ;D ,

Hi Guys and Gals
Sorry about the delay in getting the flags raised (tee hee).
Have had some issues with getting the artwork in the file type that is compatible with the flag makers however after a lot of toing and froing it shouldn't be too long before we have a proof for you to look at.
We have changed the design a little from what JKohn had mocked up - we found that using the member sticker logo left too much blank (and therefore white) on the flag. The design is now based off an unrolled cooler but will show you a proof soon so you can see.
Again - sorry about the delay - we obviously won't have them for Christmas but hopefully will for Australia Day!
Brett & Jill
-
Thanks for the update.
:cheers:
-
That's awesome!!
Would be happy to pay up front and a bit extra for all the hard work involved. I could only imagine how thirsty Brett must get doing this.
Cheers V8ute.

Is the flag only going to be printed on one side?

Is the flag only going to be printed on one side?
Hey mystq
Whilst it is only printed on one side you can clearly see the design on both sides (only it will be in reverse when you look at it from the back). We looked at getting the two sided flag however the manufacturer said you would need the wind of a cyclone to get it to fly.
Hope this helps....
-
G'day Jillsy
I'll be proud to fly it!!! You have done a great job making it happen.
:cheers:
-
Order is in for me flag and some other stuff.
-
Yep I'm getting a flag to, will be proud to fly it at every camp :cheers:
-
G'day Jillsy

To be honest I have done very little compared to JKohn who did 99% of the leg work and Brett who did or the finals...
-
Hi Folks
Just an update on the Flags - the Manufacturer has done an awesome job and has finished them already :cup: - he express posted them yesterday so they should be with me either this afternoon or tomorrow. Will forward them on to those who've paid as soon as I receive them. Looks like everyone should have them in time for their Australia Day celebrations!
Will post up some piccies of them when they arrive so you can all see them in the flesh.
For those who haven't ordered one yet and would like to...it's not too late!
-
Cheers for the update Brett.
Can't wait to fly one on Australia Day.
:cheers:
-
Cool, that was quicker than I had expected. Will have to go up to the man cave and find a spot to hang it ;D , the other is of course for the camper, It'll fly proudly beside the Aussie flag on the other side of the annex. :cheers:
-
Just got an email to say my flag is on it way.. :cheers:
