Hi Thierry, Can't answer you about the website (although I can't see why you personally couldn't add a wiki page, just make it ‘vendor’ neutral, e.g. these people sell TDE goods and give x% of sales to TDE, blah, blah). >From a business standpoint these are the things I suspect need to be answered first: - What does the product look like? - What’s the price structure? - What percentage does TDE get off the sale? - How long has the business been in operation? - What’s the background (reputation really) of the business? >From a personal standpoint I’d want to know your experience with the polo shirts: - How many have your bought from him? - How long do they last? - Need some pics! Would I buy? Yes? Everyone varies on what they deem reasonable, I tend to buy new (with tags) Polo by Ralph Lauren shirts in the 20 - 25 USD range, their t-shirts in the 7 - 10 range. Which takes a while to find. But Ralph Lauren has pretty good quality so they tend to last 5 to 10 years, so I only need to buy 3 or 4 shirts per year...
