Our redbubble account was finally approved, which means we are now selling stickers, pins, magnets, even coasters lol. Tote bags, t-shirts… I mean, why stop at just stickers?

But that’s not all, we teamed up with artist Tamaryn (https://www.artstation.com/tamaryn) who graciously offered some of her own art for our store, to help fundraise. I think her art looks dope.

We ended up settling for Redbubble due to two considerations: price and ease of access. They ship worldwide, and they are one of the cheapest POD (print on demand) service for the consumer. At this time we don’t have the capabilities of offering all this stuff ourselves.

Of course, we encourage you to make your own stickers and pins if that’s cheaper for you. It’s shipping they get you on. We barely make any money on any sale, our main fundraising avenues are still direct donations, the store is just a way to get some merch (eyeing some of that stuff myself personally).

Anyway, we’re pretty stoked about this new store and we’re hoping the art can help make sales on the broader site to fund the revolution with liberal money lol

    Feel free to print stickers yourself with our logo! We make like 40 cents on a sale, and yeah they get you on shipping depending where it’s going to, highway robbery in some places lol. In my case shipping was more than reasonable, but don’t feel bad if you print your own lol

    We might also open a spreadshirt later on which I think is better in terms of currencies and shipping costs, although the base items are pricier.

      I’ll wait for the spreadshirt then, their shipping over here is usually much cheaper. Redbubble is usually a bit mean on the global south, but the price of the stickers themselves are quite good. If I could get like 15 other people interested it could still be worth it. I’m also really interested in those “cheaper” bulk stickers that were mentioned a while back, they make for great wall decorations.

      I might make some makeshift ones until then. It’s always good to learn how to print out some propaganda.

        I can DM you a hi-res logo and you can order your own sticker roll on aliexpress if you want (then make a small paypal donation to pw lol).

        Edit: it’s just that on ali the roll is like 100 stickers but at least shipping from China is cheap. Spreadshirt might not be coming for a week or two because I’m a bit burned out from setting up the redbubble lol, I’ll take a break before I look at the spreadshirt

          Oh that’d be lovely. If I do that and somebody else buys it too, I’ll make sure the profit goes to PW. No hurry on the spreadshirt storefront though, this is more of a cute thing compared to all the great work at ProleWiki.

            Yeah, we’re not counting on these stickers and other merch being like a major source of donations. Especially not with those margins compared to the base price lol. But people wanted stickers so we tried to find a solution. Though I like our partnered artist’s art and got an acrylic block out of it for myself, it looks dope af. Hopefully that can drive some sales outside of our usual circle.

            I forgot to ask but which of the three logos would you like?

              I’d like the plain one with the logo, please. They’re gonna be small, but I want people to at least be able to google it if they see one.
