Can anybody advsise on some good places to get band tshirts? So far I've searched most of the typical sites selections, like Century Media, The End Records, and the other vendors that were at PP, as well as ebay, but they all don't really have a lot (at least not a lot of newer stuff).

The best site I've found thus far is JSR:
http://www.jsrdirect.com

They are VERY reasonably priced, and have the largest selection I've seen thus far! And I am going to get the remaining awesome Iced Earth shirts they have that I don't yet. (It's about time we see some shirts with Set Abominae as himself!)

But I saw a bunch of shirts at Exploding Ned's booth or just on people at PP that Ned's website nor JSR has!

I guess these are the things I'm interested in finding:

Manticora (more Manticora, there was a t-shirt from '8 deadly sins' I saw)
Therion (nobody seems to have the 3 Therion shirts the CM booth was selling)
Demons & Wizards (I swear I saw someone wearing a 'Crimson King' based D&W shirt... or at least one that wasn't the 'Fiddler' one)
Hammerfall (I saw many people wearing a Hammerfall shirt with an american flag logo/graphic on it)
Nostradameus (I thought I saw Ned's booth have one)
Sonata Arctica (I got both of the ones Ned's booth has, but I'm always lookin for more!)

Ned's booth also had a bunch of other stuff I can't remember off hand, but didn't ring any bells in my search for them.

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! :rock:
 
Thanks for the links, metalsped.
I'll check them out, though I wasn't too awed by Century Media's selection. (About the only one I liked that I didn't have was the Old Man's Child one, which is widely available :) )

And for ebay, I did find stuff, but not anything JSR didn't have, and it was all significantly more expensie than JSR.

The most obvious place... the band's website... has completely eluded me, THAT'S probably going to be my biggest jackpot :cool:

Thanks for the suggestions.

I have an extra Nostradameus shirt, size XL, for buy or trade (I prefer trade)

What are you looking to trade for? As it stands now, I mostly only have iron maiden and manowar shirts, and then the 6 or 7 I bought at PP. :grin: (I've just recently begun the acquisition of shirts, and don't have any duplicates)

They are all 'used' of course... and the couple that haven't been physically worn yet have seen their way thru the washing machine.

Well, I haven't really thought about it. Do you have any cds that you're looking to trade (or be willing to trade)? The Nostradameus is short sleeve "Prophet of Evil" world tour w/ cover on front and band w/ dates on back, and to my knowledge, it hasn't been worn or washed yet. I also have a used Long Sleeve Silent Force "Empire of Future" shirt. I'll sell both together for $20 if you're interested.
 
The label and vendor sites usually tend to have band shirts which are easier to find/more readily available. For harder-to-find band shirts, check the band websites.

Manticora has 2 shirts, the 8 Deadly Sins and a B&W long sleeve shirt.

Yes, you did see someone wearing a D&W shirt, it was kinda orange/brownish in color. I have no idea where he got it. Bastard :Smug:

That HammerFall shirt I believe was a US tour shirt.

I normally buy from this guy on ebay; he is in Brazil. You never know what he'll have. I recently bought an Angra and a Shaman shirt from him on ebay; both babydoll shirts with full artwork. He is the only place I can find them; although you'll notice he doesn't have either of the shirts I bought now. So check often and his auctions on Ebay (which are really cheap), seller name wayoutpost.
