While it's goog to be aware of this, I think it's important to underline 
that people aren't buying a t-shirt - not even a special edition t-shirt 
they can't get anywhere else. They're helping the foundation, and we set 
the price points not to make a margin of 10% or 20% or whatever, we set 
the price points to raise money for the foundation.

Incidentally, typical margin for garments on the internet is somewhere 
between 100% and 150% of cost. Excl. delivery costs.

Cheers,
Dave.
