Not everyone is into Peace (piece?) Love and Brotherhood.

Besides, if two people know all there is to know about a subject, they will rarely argue. They argue when one knows more than the other.

I hear you. But this is getting ridiculous. Nothing wrong with healthy competition even if some folks don't like the competitions products.

Healthy competition is good. Keeps everyone on their toes. Monopolies can (and do) get sloppy.

I buy Canadian and support local businesses when I have a choice.

I've got shirts I've made with transit items on it, they're 6 months old and still look new. So?

This is for transit trading, not apparel.

Trevor, You post your cheap junk in 2 threads. Pick one and post in it.

Since there are TWO discussions on Trevor's business, I did not know which one to pick to voice a concern I have.

It has come to my attention you are showcasing the photos of a disrespectful former kybosh member of the CPTDB for your merchandise by the name of Mark David. This individual caused a lot of grief on this board and there is a lot of bad blood between many members and him. I find it to be an incredible insult to support him and show off his work, it's like supporting other kyboshes like Ryan Ho. This is a very big mistake and a slap in the face for many of us. Upon this revelation, I am no longer interested in purchasing anything from you.

Well since you asked...

I have to agree with the post quoted below. If no one is interested in one thread, they aren't going to be interested in another. And to be honest, the quality of Trevor's products is below what you can get from official sources or even for free. I base this on what has been shown so far. And short of buying one of these products, that's all that one can judge them by.

We've seen "businesses" like this before. Someone sees they can make an easy buck off the hobby and people get greedy. People get greedy and these "businesses" get sleazy. So I think we can forgive people for being wary.

Im not trying to be sleezy or anything..my stuff is of high quality so again do got opening your mouth to stuff u dont see eith your own eyes..I would like to then quote this testimony from a customer.

"LOVE this T-shirt. Great quality- and an affordable price. I have worn it almost every day since I received it, and I look forward to watching the CANUSA bus video DVD. Thanks Trevor! Keep up the good work." -Fred Donaher, Roanoke, Virginia

So obviously I do a good job, and If the TTC has given me a license and got permission to use my photos on any tshirts from various transit authorities then obviously they must think its a good job and quality as well. So maybe people should F'n stop badmouthing shit. I am not being sleezy or anything, I aint being greedy, I am offering a reasonable price, Im not going to rip people off, I am not like that. I gone through all the LEGAL channels, registering my business, obtaining licenses and written permission for transit systems,etc. So I am not like "other" business. I am legit and legal and I provide a good quality shirt again READ THE TESIMONIAL and STOP JUDGING MY STUFF BASED ON HEARSAY...HEARSAY IS NOT ALWAYS TRUE... TRANSPORR...you should F'N stop judging people....i work hard at this business while going through school and driving a cab...this is just a small business trying to make a extra little income to help pay bills and stuff. I am a canadian business, and only buy the best quality shirts.

I have never once judged you. I hate everyone equally.

All you are doing is putting photos on shirts and mouse pads... Takes no talent... Heck I should start doing that with my "high quality" photos.

Chris and I have had our beef in the past. But he has taken the time to make his own designs on photoshop or graphic design software for his shirts and hats.

I never had a photshop program before till now and I am photoshopping my photos and taking out the background and making the vehicle itself much more appealing. I am still working out a few little kinks but to become better takes practice and i am. And u am taking ny time to carefully crop out the bus, remove the background and make the bus stand out. I'd invite you to see one of my shirts in person and see what you think. And I welcome any suggestions you may have to improve the business

Dude. The major point is, you have a thread for your website. Advertise your stuff in there and stop filling this thread with duplicate posts. Also, if your pictures are so high quality why is the back end of that fishbowl cut off?
