Edit: I have emailed to all the winners about how much the shirt + shipping + paypal will be. The approximation should be correct. Let's just hope that I calculated right and paypal doesn't ram me up the ass with hidden fees. Hurry up and pay me so I can mail these out ASAP! Big brown boxes in the middle of my studio is unsightly!
It'll take about 2-3 weeks (otherwise shipping price goes up a LOT) and all money quoted is in USD.
------------------------
Thank you all for your 250+ emails!! I never realized how many lurkers we have on this forum; many of you wrote me some heartfelt entries which (being the softie that I am) helped decide who to pick. A kinda sorta thanks to those of you who made it easy to disregard your entries too. Honestly, it was a difficult task but here's the list....
*drumroll*
+ Show Spoiler + broz0rs eci JayUU Pokebunny Evanslayer Trowabarton Melloweitsj tentaclemonster ThePhan2m mrscheng QuickStriker Scaramanga riptide niteReloaded yukido EmuCXG mozz wolf.dk toipspinserve zalcion Demo1 Ash Tensai176 Tynuji theirishbecker TheDCninja (you must send me a picture of your graduation speech) Yaqoob ZeaL ktp solidphoenix Divinek ZooG Secretnoob (i wanna see a pic of your sis in this!)

Give me a few days to go to the post office and get shipping prices and I will email you guys with my paypal and shipping cost. I will ship out your shirt only AFTER the money has been deposited into my account. If anyone decides to screw me over by taking back the money that was deposited into paypal after a few days or so, I have your address and I will hunt you down to burn your family. So please don't do that.
Moving on.
Now, as I've said, there were some heartfelt mails, but many, many of your emails were pretty generic (what happened to creative, clever and concise!?). However, here are the few that really made my day. It was effort that I was seeking. Throwing me a one liner saying "I want this shirt cuz it's cool, OMGBBQ I LOVE SKT1 Boxer and Bisu OMGOMGOMG" wasn't exactly the type of effort I was looking for.
I will share with you my favorite entries ^^
+ Show Spoiler + Clad only in BoxeRs and Bee Suits, they self consciously wonder around the deserted stadium, They dream, the simple Fantasy of offical clothing, shirts, fit for The Emperor himself! Then, out of a RainbOw, the glorious lilsusie arrives, bearing gifts. From the Kingdom of Midas, soft red cotton, embranded with a flying T1. ooV for Victory! The nobel warriors cheer for sheer victory! lilsusie brings them the very BeSt, the gear required for a SKT 09 year!
I sit alone in a darkened room, clad only in boxers and a bee suit. With a single tear, I wish for a blessing, a shirt of red glory, because it's really cold in here.
+ Show Spoiler + if i get this shirt........ i have a build prepared.
8/9 - put it on and wear it down to the bar 10- win the pool tournament due to extreme confidence inspired by bisu 12- set the high score on every pinball machine and arcade game in the place while using the ID SKT 15- summon the power of oov 17- find the best looking girl in the bar 20- contain her 21- use oov style macro and buy her mad drinks with my huge economy, but make sure NOT to over-spend, efficiency first. 22- ee-han-timing all in move 25- take her home, knock boots without taking off the shirt 26- upon climax i will yell "BOXER NEVER DIE" at the top of my lungs 29- gg and leave, maybe call her next day for the re.
normally id not be this confident or aggressive. please!! help me make this dream come true.
+ Show Spoiler + T1 shirts are red, Khan shirts are blue, lilsusie's a babe, please give me a shirt oh my god :X ...
you prefer haiku? ............ adorned with red flair, I stand tall above my foes in my t1 shirt!!!!
+ Show Spoiler + It's my BeSt fantasy, getting this shirt would be like finding a pot of gold at the end of the RainBOw or becoming the best Boxer in the world, to be without it would be like being touched by Midas or stabbed with a dagger in my heart, if i dont get it I might have to visit Doctor.K or drown myself in a Lake and.Die_so my Only wish is this shirt, Iloveyou.
+ Show Spoiler + Noob studies Bisu Bewildered by a Boxer Terran up the night
+ Show Spoiler +I feel me having this shirt will be a great asset to lilsusie and SKT1. Being the world's second most 섹시 and 예쁜 person that I am, wearing this shirt out in public will attract much attention and fame to SKT1 and lilsusie. Random girl who has the hots for me: "Oh baby. You're so sexy." "Yeah. I know." "What is this shirt you're wearing that hides your 8-pack abs and bulging biceps? Take it off." "NO. IT WAS SOLD BY LILSUSIE. I'LL NEVER TAKE IT OFF. IT EVEN HAS THE SKT1 LOGO ON IT." "What?" "Lilsusie is only the world's hottest and most beautiful girl ever." "WHAT?" "Yeah. Here's a picture of lilsusie and I" http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/2276/meandlilsusie.jpg
+ Show Spoiler + Against all these passing years through thick and thin, Braving the turbulence of time and the terror of what's been, Have I always stuck through the falling ditches of the undone, A fan of starcraft and a fan of SK Telecom T1.
Before the revolution of both Terran and Toss Have i struggled with SKT1's accumulating loss, The baby bear, an aged bear to accept his fate, GoRush's 9-pooled lings coming all the way too late.
The Gorilla gazing across the setting day, And The emperor drafted and sent far away, A monster that had yet to grow his first teeth, And the dagger still hidden away in it's sheath,
So, you can separate me from the rest of those desperate pleas Whose lines would be fake and something like, "OMG i luv you susie" Whether this t-shirt of gold should make it to my hands, You deserve the praise and have become my instant fan,
And somewhere, across countless plays of expand, The desert dunes and miles of golden yellow sand, SKT1 fans will cheer Bisu vs. Savior and his head we'll demand, And hopes Ma Jae Yoon will again, forget his Adrenalin Glands.
+ Show Spoiler +Why do I want this shirt? Well first off the shirt just looks awesome. I've always thought SKT1 had the BeSt uniforms and while this shirt isn't the same as their uniforms, I can play out my fantasy of wearing one. SKT1 isn't my favorite team, but I definitely respect them and even have a little fear when STX takes SKT1 on. When SKT1 is really on fire its like Mike Tyson getting ready to Rumble, with their opponent being some unknown BoxeR. With so many legends and legends in the making, the SKT1 logo represents what I think e-sports should look like. I would be proud to wear that SKT1 logo, but if you Canata offer me a shirt I will Bisu sad, but I will understand. You're probably tired of the punsoo I'll just leave it at that  .
+ Show Spoiler + Oh Susie you are so sweet To not like socks upon the feet But if instead I may have this shirt upon me I will owe infinite thanks to thee, Susie.
I just want to fulfill my dream To be able to show off the best team And I know you can help me get there Because everyone knows, you are so debonair
So please help my wish come true That my red shirt might have the best view This one of s-k-telecom I will wear with power and aplomb
+ Show Spoiler + A fan ever since I laid my eyes on the red, wishing I was there during the blue and white days. A multi-time champion team, and a team of individual champions.
The Bonjwas of Boxer and ILoveOov, to the old generation of Kingdom and GoRush. The new generation of BeSt and Fantasy, to the additions of Bisu and TheZerg. The superstars of Midas, Rainbow, and Canata, with the adorable mascot Bunkie.
Each with a special bond, with a different story to tell. Harsh journeys travelled upon, filled with different emotions.
Success or failure, love and passion is around.
The value of the shirt, is above any monetary value. It consists of a legacy, a story of true fighters.
SKTelecom-T1 Fighting~!

wow!!! the entries were so cool esp. the one with the haiku
congrats to the winners! i really envy you, guys...

I have not investigated into that. It would have caused delays (even more so). Besides, none of you would actually WEAR the shirt if it had autographs on them, and who's to say they actually sign them, it's not just a print?

Seems it'll be about 2-3 weeks before you'll get them. Hooray for items being on boats! I've already mailed one out today! (just to double check shipping and tax. WHHEEEEEE!)
ALL MONEY UNITS IN USD!!
Here are the pictures of the boxes in my apt. (That's my bunkie )

lmao some of those entries are fucking hilarious. BOXER NEVER DIE!!
|
You rock, lilsusie. Thanks a lot! :D
|
Oh wow, yay!!!!! Well time for me to check the e-mail asap!!! Thank you lilsusie-nuna!! ^_^
Also btw, is the Bunkie keychain item and that picture of SKT1 players included with the T-shirt?!?!?!?!?!? I would definitely love to have them too! :D

nooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! but but... I like the Bunkie... ^_^
Alright, I checked the e-mail and will reply to the e-mail (in which you will see in few moments) and will log onto paypal to send you the money!!! (in which I'll once again repeat what I said in the e-mail)
Though seeing how I went onto paypal.com and realized that I don't have any balance but my bank account attached to it, it said I can directly wire it from my bank to your account thru paypal but it takes 3-5 days to process it... hmm....
Is there a faster way to do this??
edit: nvm, I realized there's a function called "Instant Transfer" in which I assume takes quicker time without first putting money on the paypal... I guess I'll try using that method..

The first 5 I've packaged and are ready for shipping....
|
OMG Im so jealous... KTF please...
|
Well, I somewhat figured out the paypal system and send the money to you susie-nuna! So I hope that makes me the sixth person to be mailed!! ^_^
Can't wait to wear that t-shirt in every single match of when SKT1 is playing :D
Now if only there's a way to get a hold on that bunkie.........
|
YA YA YA YA YA ^^ u am happy i send money later today
|
btw if u in later times sell the jacket i will buy one too ofc and ofc with provision for you

oh god how I feel for you! I had some problems with paypal, too, actually had to confirm my adress and everything... (almost couldn't sleep because of that, too.) a very good friend of mine even said he'd look for someone with a paypal account since nobody uses it around here.
thankfully though, I got it restored again and just now sent the money via giropay so it should be "right away" which is probably tomorrow (that would be later today for Susie, I guess).
sent you a mail again, susie, just thought I'd put it here, too.

Yours was the very first one I mailed out. ^^ They are all off my hands now - so .... they should all be arriving soon!
Glad you guys like my post-it notes. I hate typing up addresses for snail mail - it takes away from the personal aspect of receiving a package. Tho after hand writing my address 60 times... I might just make a stamp next time. LOL.

"Against all these passing years through thick and thin, Braving the turbulence of time and the terror of what's been, Have I always stuck through the falling ditches of the undone, A fan of starcraft and a fan of SK Telecom T1.
Before the revolution of both Terran and Toss Have i struggled with SKT1's accumulating loss, The baby bear, an aged bear to accept his fate, GoRush's 9-pooled lings coming all the way too late.
The Gorilla gazing across the setting day, And The emperor drafted and sent far away, A monster that had yet to grow his first teeth, And the dagger still hidden away in it's sheath,
So, you can separate me from the rest of those desperate pleas Whose lines would be fake and something like, "OMG i luv you susie" Whether this t-shirt of gold should make it to my hands, You deserve the praise and have become my instant fan,
And somewhere, across countless plays of expand, The desert dunes and miles of golden yellow sand, SKT1 fans will cheer Bisu vs. Savior and his head we'll demand, And hopes Ma Jae Yoon will again, forget his Adrenalin Glands."
Wow...that is actually really, really good...lol.

Adidas produces the shirts for SKT. SKT has a shop and sells them, susie bought and shipped them as a voluntary service to TL users, because people outside of Korea cannot buy them.
It's an Adidas logo on an original Adidas product.

ok then does the product have the "not for individual sale". That too can allow them to sue if they like... just saying that when comes to product and mechanising there are channels that must be followed there is certain items that your not aloud to buy then sell.
if Adidas was informed it would be redistributed then it is ok does she have a license... Thing is if you buy a bunch of products then resell it, depending on the amount and the countrys laws it can sometimes cause legal problems, is the patten for those skirts for Korea only cause then there is a problem if the manifacturer has it setup so that it can only be sold in Korea then selling else were is breaking the law.
You never wondered why only certain items can be sold in certain countrys, it because that country holds the patten rights and may not want to share it with other countrys, the copyright law is a complicated one but easy to learn. I am just saying that you must check into these things before buying and selling from stores specially in mass cause it can land you in trouble if they find out. When you sell like you did your acting as a distributer which requires a license to do so and permission of the manifacturer to distribute there product internationally.
|
Wow man. As far as I know, there's nothing wrong with Susie simply acting as a "middle man" in this process. She simply bought them and is sold them back to us as a favour. She isn't even making a profit out of any of these which essentially makes it the same if we went to Korea and bought the shirts ourselves. It would've also been the same if she sold them on ebay...
As to why Adidas doesn't sell the SKT1 outside of Korea is simply because THERE IS NO MARKET - besides us that is. But it's obvious not profitable enough for Adidas. BTW, there are no patents on these.. lol. Copyright law applies to abstract content only..for example music, books. What Adidas is is a trademark... and because Adidas operates worldwide, it wouldn't have a problem distributing this shirt WW either. This is a simple scenario of supply and demand. Why supply a region with SKT1 shirts if there is no demand.

I've already asked SKT1 if they care that I send it out. Most of the pro-teams know me, my intentions and my relationship with TL. If they had an issue with it, I'm sure they would have told me otherwise.

susie it not skt1 who you need permission from it the manifacturers of the shirt and if it is legal to sell outside of korea, it like this ok say someone goes down to a shop now buys 200 copys of a product then sells it online at a profit the company who created the product does has legal rights to sue...
Cause to sell items in that manner requires a license which is purchased you see what you havnt considered is royalitys to people invested in adidas. This is why people dont just buy and sell products and it has to go through proper channels of marketing.
It is ok however if you represent the manifacturer and the royalitys are still being giving to the investers.

I can argue that I'm not selling them but I bought them to give them away as gifts to friends all over the world who were just so grateful that they decided to donate some money to me.
It's like getting money from friends before taking a trip somewhere and buying them souvenirs from the said trip and mailing it to them since I'm too lazy to go directly to their houses.

What profit? What about all those people who sell over ebay? You think that they have proper licenses to sell their items?

Give her a break man, you cant honestly think she is trying to exploit the fact that this particular product isnt available ANYWHERE but korea. This took a lot of effort the least it deserves is this.

I didnt say she would just saying that if you let one do it then many could and it would cost adidas money... since I do have stocks if i did have money invested in adidas and saw people selling there products outside of the normal channels yes id complain to adidas about royalitys we could be missing out on... But my point is this you think it harmless but if everyone was doing it you would cost companys alot of cash flow that is why they would sue not saying they would for what she did but if she kept doing it maybe.

You are not making any sense then, it isn't as if she is making a business out of this considering how she isn't selling this at a profit, and the amount she is selling at is insubstantial. She'd need to sell a few million shirts at this rate for you to actually be losing out on money if you are an Adidas investor. Yes, it is an issue, yes, that's why these companies as seeking ways to counter the effect of thrifts, no, they aren't going to sue her.
At that, all that are under a pretty odd assumption that Carnac has pointed out at the previous page to be pretty unlikely. If anything, if you are an Adidas investor, you should enjoy this free advertising.

Yes just making sure she doesnt plan on continueing doing it, you see my point thou if alot people started to do it, it would threaten the industry, specially with this recession. If what she did was get money of them first then buy for them then just send it and as long it legal to export outside of korea then no problem. She said she got permission from the store and SKT1 so perhaps she was just acting on there behave so it probably was legit since as you said she didnt try make a profit or undercut it.
Another thing which can get you in trouble is to buy a product and sell it cheaper overseas than it can be puchased for from the stores itself, cause it takes business but as you said she only planned to do 200 and it was more a gift according to her than a marketing prospect.

1) I hope she continues doing it because as far as I know, the demand here outstripped her ability to supply them this time. 2) I'd be perfectly fine if she made a profit from doing it since she is providing a service to the foreigners. It just shows how great of a person she is to do it without profit. 3) You need to learn to spell, punctuate, use the appropriate words and write shorter sentences. 4) As for selling products across countries:
Companies usually do not like products being exported because they practice price discrimination. A prime example of this is Microsoft selling windows for $5 ( or somewhere around that figure ) in China because the consumers there simply do not want to pay more due to rampant piracy. If someone were to buy Windows in China for $5 in bulk and sell them in the United States for $10, It would obviously hurt Microsoft since it unfairly undercuts their windows sales in the US. However, this only applies to products which are available in both countries.
In the case of SKT1 shirts, there is no equivalence of that product outside of Korea, which removes most of the rational for preventing export. As someone has mentioned before, these shirts aren't sold outside of Korean simply because of the lack of market. In fact I think we are doing Adidas a favor by purchasing these shirts since I'm sure they earn a profit on them.
There are many examples of selling product to a foreign country due to lack of availability. For example you can check out http://www.dynamism.com, which does that for laptops which are not available in the states.

Thank you for this. You managed to cover all the points I was going to cover, and save me the trouble of writing a post up. Though I'm not sure it will stop him from making himself look even stupider. But yeah, Un4seen, I'll hop right on the IQ test.
Edit: On second thought, I'm nearly convinced this is a troll. His first point (post) is completely different from the point he is trying to make now.

200 shirts? Holy shit this kid is giving me more credit than I deserve. Thanks for thinking that I can be this amazing mastermind in business transactions. Actually I have a small adidas sweat shop in my apartment, making replicas of the exact shirt right now as I'm typing. I hope to sell them for about $5 cheaper than the SKT1 store. This time I'm creating 1000s.

Thanks for thinking that I can be this amazing mastermind in business transactions. Actually I have a small adidas sweat shop in my apartment, making replicas of the exact shirt right now as I'm typing. I hope to sell them for about $5 cheaper than the SKT1 store. This time I'm creating 1000s. Don't do it, Susie, at that rate you'll put Adidas out of business. =( If Adidas goes out of business, it'll pose a systematic risk to the financial system which has just begun recovering, don't do it, Susie, my life savings are riding on the line. As are many people's retirement pensions, for God's sake, don't do such a horrible thing.

You are not making any sense then, it isn't as if she is making a business out of this considering how she isn't selling this at a profit, and the amount she is selling at is insubstantial. She'd need to sell a few million shirts at this rate for you to actually be losing out on money if you are an Adidas investor. Yes, it is an issue, yes, that's why these companies as seeking ways to counter the effect of thrifts, no, they aren't going to sue her. At that, all that are under a pretty odd assumption that Carnac has pointed out at the previous page to be pretty unlikely. If anything, if you are an Adidas investor, you should enjoy this free advertising. Yes just making sure she doesnt plan on continueing doing it, you see my point thou if alot people started to do it, it would threaten the industry, specially with this recession. If what she did was get money of them first then buy for them then just send it and as long it legal to export outside of korea then no problem. She said she got permission from the store and SKT1 so perhaps she was just acting on there behave so it probably was legit since as you said she didnt try make a profit or undercut it. Another thing which can get you in trouble is to buy a product and sell it cheaper overseas than it can be puchased for from the stores itself, cause it takes business but as you said she only planned to do 200 and it was more a gift according to her than a marketing prospect. Are you Adidas' messiah or something? Wait, do you even know wtf Susie is doing exactly? Or even who she is in the first place?
Shares in company...alot companys having problems cause of the recession look at general motors they now filing for bankruptcy. Just saying in times like these companys would try get as much they can if they can.
Since you pointed out it legal to export it then no problem and since she not affecting gross income of Adidas then ill leave it alone, but if the market is a decent amount perhaps she should speak to SKT1 and there adidas representive about doing international exporting.

the sole reason she did this in the first place is because Adidas (and any other KR company associated with e-sports, like Lecaf OZ and Le Coq Sportif) deem the market outside of SKorea would not be profitable.

Since you care so much, why don't you do it? Since you are an Adidas share holder wouldn't it make more sense for you tell Adidas of untapped markets which would ultimately benefit you more? Or are you one of those people who sits on their ass and complain without any resolve to do anything to change things?

Judging by the quality of your posts, I could tell you're not some big owner of Adidas. You own 0.00000001% of their stock, having a few shirts sold overseas is not going to hurt you in any way.
