My wonderful Hoodie
Having already reviewed the website Cafe Press over on Epinions awhile back, I do not plan to go into the details of that website here today. I do, however, want to let other Fanpop members to know just how great the Fanpop stuff is.

I ordered the white Hoodie, the black long-sleeved t-shirt for women, the large coffee mug, and a sticker to put on my iMac. Hmmm I should have gotten two of those... one for my suitcase. Damn. but I digress...

I will say that it is easy to order from Cafe Press. My only gripe with them is that they don't take Paypal. You do have to give up the ol' Credit Card number for them. Irksome, but what can ya do? I've emailed them about that but apparently I'm the only Paypal dork to have done so.

There was a problem with my order. I had never noticed it, but the CC I was using had my first name last, last name first. Odd, that. customer Service at Cafe Press was extremely friendly and easy to deal with and my order was processing within 24 hours of that slight glitch. Kudos to them for that. Great Customer Service is hard to find these days.

So anywaaaay, my order arrived to Sweden within about 2 weeks, give or take. I'm too lazy to go look up the original order date. For you folks ordering outside the US, I will suggest you do not pop a big order. do a few small ones. Swedish customs got me for another 40% of the order price. We are lodging a complaint about that (should have been 25%) but still... be warned on the duty fees... paying a small shipping fee twice is much less than paying duty on one large order.

I felt like a kid at christmas when I opened the box.

The mug and the white hoodie are my favorites, but the black long sleeved t-shirt is very cool too. Dave says wait before ordering the colored things as they are making some changes to those, but I am pretty happy with my black t-shirt. I do need to add that I haven't washed that yet though so... I'll let ya know if anything weird happens when I do ;)

but I must rave about this white hoodie. Oh man. It is thick, great quality, and oh soooo soft inside. Plus, that Fanpop logo really stands out. The blue and green against the white is fabulous.

I recommend everyone get one of these. Seriously. For the quality, it isn't overly expensive at all. This thing is built to last many cold Swedish winters.

So yeah. If you were debating about ordering any Fanpop merchandise from Cafe Press, I say go ahead and do it. The quality is great, and it is all very well packed. I mean hey, a coffee mug made it to an International destination intact... that's saying a lot ;)

For the curious, my old review of Cafepress is here: http://www.epinions.com/content_1365533336­452

But I will be moving that off Epinions and onto Associated Content eventually...
