Might I be able to watch the detail of the T-shirt?
Even if the fan didn't imagine it, I was able to choose it.

Seems like a lot of people have a lot of negative comments over a really cool T-shirt. It looks cool 2 me and I will be proud 2 represent

There is actually more content on that shirt than there is on the website. You know it is a sad day in Prince World when a "t-shirt" is the main topic.

I guess I shouldn't be, but I'm shocked and amazed at the snotty little hatin' going on over a decent looking t-shirt. I'm very pleased to be getting a funky shirt not generally available to the public, not overpriced at a concert, not even asked for but offered. Perhaps I was pleasantly surprised by the e-mail cause I didn't notice them asking for my size but dayam, I'm glad I slapped down the $77 with no hesitation. I'd be happy if he sent me a 10 cent purple pencil, people! I really am a fan!

he doesn't believe in time.. so i can see this error happening.

I know there must have been a web site error when we all ordered our T shirts, hence us all getting a (why they had to lie about this I don't know) but Europeans beware. I've just got an email reminding me I have to pay $7 for shipping...I reminded them, that I already paid for shipping at the point of joining Lotusflw3r!

Well, after many emails, I managed to get a picture of the back-print to the shirt...










Hell Yeah!

I'm not 16 anymore.
I don't wear t-shirts with anything printed on the front. Period.
As one of Prince's elderly fans this t-shirt was not something I wanted.
Thats why I didn't join the club.
I didn't want a lousy t-shirt.
If Prince wants to lure more fans to join the club give us more music - not t-shirts & perfume.
Until then I'm not joining.

WOW!!!

Okay, I'm pissed! I did not get this email. In fact, I did not even know this email was being circulated to Lotusflow3r members until another orger (a good friend of mine) showed it to me. I'm wondering why I never received this notice, since I signed up the very first day the club opened, and I should be a "founding member". I did order a T-shirt when I signed up, so I should be receiving one, no????? Guess I should email Lotusflow3r and ask why I did not receive this email, since I have received all the other ones that the club has sent me.

Did u check your Spam folder? Two of the emails I received from the site regarding tickets were there instead of my inbox. Not sure why though.

Thanks for the suggestion. I checked in my Spam folder and my Trash folder, it was not there. I also looked on my list of blocked email addresses, and it was not there either. Guess I'm going to have to mail Lotusflow3r and see what's up. I'm really confused as to why I never received this email.

Sdldawn said:

That is definitely a typo. Apparently someone didn't check the calendar, so now one has to ask...is the deadline Thursday, May 7th or Friday, May 8th?

Just sent an email to lotusflow3r. Hopefully, they will answer me.

psychodelicide said:

I hope so!

fec06 said:

Thanks, me too!

I just hope in 3 weeks, there isn't a Sorry For The Confusion About The Deadline Date email sent in lieu of your t-shirts!

Whistler said:

I consider myself a prince fan, but not mug enough to be ripped off $77 for some low quality piece of shite t-shirt! Fools

fec06 said:

That Uncle-Sam media-whore would promote a bag of peanuts if it got his 'tardo mug in print somewhere - is anybody with half a brain supposed to be impressed by this Homey the Clown?? Seriously?? Pffff! Whatever, Bozo...
Keep grinning like a half quid, fuck-knuckle!...

Even if they did, it would only show they are professional enough to acknowledge an error or delay. That's how you do business, you don't let your ego get in the way especially if you want folks to purchase your product(s) in the future.

I think whomever is sending out these emails isn't using spell-check or taking the time to proofread for errors like they should;especially seeing how they seem to be in a rush to get that email out and give fans about a 2-day, (3-day?) deadline notice to change the size of the t-shirt, in which an orger here pointed out that they had Friday, as the 7th, when today is actually the 8th. They need a second person to read the emails before sending it anymore emails, just to spot-check for possible errors.

I love your eternal optimism...stay sweet!

Speaking strictly as a business owner, how you do business is to get it right the first time! Mistakes do happen but when your business develops a reputation for having "mistakes"...there's a problem...and it's starts at the top!

Thank you dahhhlling, I try. But at the same time, these things happen. I believe artists are too busy to handle the technical stuff like the mass emails. Whomever is sending out these emails, just need to take a few minutes to proofread, as it seems they rushed it out. I'm not excusing them for the slight errors, but I look at all the websites he ran in the past as individual sites with different employees at the time.

Maybe he needs to hire someone with more experience and a knack for double/triple-checking content before it goes out. Also, they probably should have sent out emails about the size changes when fans indicated around the first week they signed up, that they either didn't see the t-shirt offer because they were signing up real fast and missed it, and the ones that did say, they forgot to enter a size for the t-shirt when they were signing up.

First of all, I'm surprised the sign-up allowed you to submit the form, without the t-shirt portion prompting that, that particular section was left blank. Maybe they need to get Sam back or get some much needed advice from him on how to manage a website.
