Tunnel 85 , you took the words right of my mouth... ;D
LE, this is the women t-shirt, that is why it looks great on the model! It  :lol
Yes, I got the mail as well, two days after I placed the order. But I only ordered the two keyrings! I found their P&P cost very expensive!
I ordered from Guy some CDs and they were only 1.8 Euros for P&P! And the CDs were real inexpensive! Free or cheap P&P is an extra incentive, in my opinion. And this must be the way to survive in so much competition.
I remember ordering from David Knopfler, a couple of years ago, and I had just opened my Paypal account, so I had no idea what he was talking about in his site. So I asked him via email, to explain to me, but mostly to autograph me the new CD, as he stated that he would upon request. I got a very angry response, (something like open your eye and see)  and a few days later the CD with no autograph. There goes the communication between fans and artist.
I would like to make a bitter comment but I'd better stick to the topic.
Nice t-shirts...

Oh, I have no problem with someone stating any bitter  comments about David K.    :lol :lol :lol

However, you are right, after all, this is only a little thread about t-shirts... and stuff...

I am so confident in Guy Fletcher's attitude that I would never suspect him of high CD prices or post/Package racket. He is absolutely above any question when it comes to artistic credibilitiy. I only wonder if he ever will produce and sell some T-SHIRTS via his homepage...  ;D

Strange about David K. I ordered all his cds and he signed me one of them, and actually all the communication was very nice...

When I Saw him in Alicante, he signed me some vynils and took photos with me and my friends, always smiling and very happy.

About the mk.com store. The problem is they are in Canada (yes... MK

Thank you jbaent for the comment. Paradoxically I was listening to DK's concert from Alicante yesterday (were you he taper coughing? ;D  ) and I was surprised from his comments between songs. Especially after WWE and when he asks the audience to buy his CDs. Maybe your very presence there stopped him from being impolite. I don't know and really I don't want to know after my experience.
The MK store sends from many places on earth. About 2-3 years ago I ordered various things and they arrived separately from different locations and of course, different weeks!  But truth be told, I had no idea that the headquarters were in Canada. It is a country that it is expensive to send or receive goods, and maybe that is why it has no economical problems...But why Canada? Tax reasons maybe?
