Patches! Patches! Patches!

After literally years of delays, we are finally delivering on our promise of swag. We've been accumulating merchandise, supplies, and gumption, and we think we're finally ready.
The Patches



Construction
All patches here are 3" round and feature 100% embroidery coverage, a heat-seal backing, and a merrowed edge.

2010 Patch
The winning design from the 2009 Patch Design Contest, submitted by MV user robotribe, has been adapted to be the 2010 patch, since we're only now getting around to issuing it. We hope you like it.

2009 Patch
Moving robotribe's design to 2010 created a gap in the list of annual patches, and so we've taken the liberty of moving another contest finalist into the 2009 position. This design was submitted by our very own ericalm.

2008 Patch
Prior to the 2009 Patch Design contest, we had already designed and ordered a batch of 2008 patches, which are going on sale now for the first time.

2007 Patch
Previously on sale way back in 2007, we have a very small quantity of these patches still available. First come first serve, and when they're gone, they're gone.

Stickers
But wait! There's more! We also have some stickers that will be packaged with the patches or available as a separate sticker pack. These stickers are vinyl, UV-resistant, and are suitable for outdoor use.
MV Ovals
These small (2" x 3") and large (3" x 5") ovals riff on the country-code stickers often seen on the backs of cars. Put these stickers on your scooter or car so that people know you're from Maldives!




Modern Vespa Roundel
This "classic" Modern Vespa 3" sticker has been around for a few years, and we still have a bit of stock left. Supplies are limited, and when they're gone, they're gone.


Orders
Please, whatever you do, do not send jess a PM. It will be ignored.

If you have a question that's not covered somewhere in this post, then post it in this thread.
Discounts & Packages
You want a discount? Okay, you've got it! We've combined all our swag into various packages in order to (ahem) streamline things on our end, and provide a discount to you for purchasing more stuff.
PayPal
We use PayPal because it provides an easy, low-cost way of accepting payments over the web. This will be the only way to purchase these items, with no exceptions for any reason. Note that you do not need a PayPal account in order to purchase items through PayPal -- just a credit card, like any other online purchase. PayPal will also accept checks and bank transfers.
Shipping and Handling
We'll cover the costs of shipping and handling for domestic and international shipments. We should begin shipping orders out approximately January 6th.
Order Page
You can purchase the above swag in various packages from our Modern Vespa Merchandise page.

You could just pretend it stands for Modern Vespa, then.

I have placed an order. It does seem a bit extreme and unfair (to you, not me!) that you are covering the shipping cost to the UK. I suppose you know what you are doing, but if you find you need to charge a few dollars to cover my shipping just let me know.

Thanks

They are really lovely Jess. You did an excellent job of it and so did all those responsible for the designs. Unfortunately, PayPal will not accept my credit card as we do not have street addresses or postal/zip codes here. It's a major problem for us.

OH well ... enjoy your patches all!

Why is it called "Tourist Season" if they won't let us shoot them?! ;)

What? No pre-order option for the 2011 patch?

No, but this experience has taught me a valuable lesson about proper alignment with the calendar year, and when the process needs to start. There was a long delay getting this set of patches out, but I would like it noted for the record that today is January 2nd, 2010, and we're introducing the 2010 patch. I hope to stick to that schedule in the future.

The bannings will continue until morale improves.

Stupid question... is it possible to just order patches, sans stickers? Say, one each of the '08, '09, and '10 patch?

I think that once you've got the stickers, you'll find them useful

There's a package with 08/09/10 in it that happens to have stickers, but they're a relatively small part of the cost structure. Consider them bonuses.

Thanks Jess, awesome patches and stickers. Placed my order.

I was just telling my wife that hopefully people won't confused the MV sticker with Mission Viego, Jejeje. We don't live there.

Again, the wait was worth it.

I just enjoy the zen of riding my scooter!

Yeah, I saw that one come up when I was googling around, trying to figure out which locales would conflict.
