ASSRA Sale Items

I just went through the club for sale items and noticed it's mostly shirts and sweatshirts. Years ago there were ceramic coffee mugs ( I still have two). There was also I believe enameled club logo pins for putting on ones shooting boxes. Have they both gotten so expensive to make that hey are no longer profitable? I know I would be in line to purchase both if available. Anyone know manufacturing costs today? 
Just thinking outside the lines again

I buy powder, brass, hand tools, reloading stuff, etc. mostly on line these days. Some on E Bay, some on Facebook auctions, some on individual items. Custom mugs and pins have exploded on Facebook the last year or so. I have one or two displaying my Name, rank, MOS, unit, etc. in the Army from these offers on FB. Also a couple with me and my pet dog, names, likenesses, etc. Reasonable cost mostly. On these mugs you can have choices on hair color and style (Or none), name, background, Choice of ASSRA handle and shooting discipline, listing of favored shooting/hunting/collecting disciplines, just about anything. This should be attainable by one or two of our effective, energetic members. Just make sure the ASSRA gets a cut. I would buy several. How about you. fellow member?

Pins are nice I had some made for The Arizona Schuetzenverein. The problem is you need to order a large amount of them. So there are upfront costs and then they need to be shipped to individuals. A lot of time goes into shipping. If I remember correctly I had 200-250ish made. A few years back. I think I finally distributed the remaining pins at the National Match back in January. 
There is artwork for pins. Randy Wright has been very helpful and generous with his time and hard work. All it takes is someone to take the project on. Collect the money, ship, organize, etc....

I was just thinking of ways for the ASSRA to make a little extra money without a lot of work. Maybe there are other ideas as well. Does someone have contact info who makes them to see if cost outlay is feasible?

I like reading what you are thinking! So I looked through old emails and back in 2022 I had Pinmart make 100 pins. Total cost was $288.00. However, the more you order they go down in cost. 
The most labor intensive part to this project would be shipping the individually ordered pins to members.
