Anyone know where BlueSunShirts is meatspace located? Just a country would be fine. I ordered a few shirts before they closed (closed Oct. 8) and have been waiting not so patiently for them to arrive...

I ordered two shirts from them on October 6th. I just received both today. The shirts are fine - but it did take this long for the shirts to reach me. I'm on the west coast and the envelope's return address was in Texas USA.
Have a little more patience, FlatTop - your shirts will probably show up tomorrow.

You know someone really needs to explain to the Fox execs the meaning of the words losing gracefully. As in just because they f***ed up royally and have just now realized it there's no point in being petty. Which is what this is all about. They messed up, and now that they've found out that alot of people actually love the BDS and the BDM and are willing to buy merchandise from both and they want to make the money from it. And unfortunately although they are small brained morons, they are small brained morons with copyright laws in their favor. Which sucks for us because I seriously doubt that Fox's goal (after shutting down all of these places) is to market their own Firefly merchandise.
Sorry bout the rant. I spent a long day at work dealing with stupid people, and now I'm seeing there are even stupider people out there. I mean I already knew the Fox execs were idiots but this is a whole new level of stupidity.

While I'm not crazy about these crackdowns on Firefly/Serenity fandom merchandise, I think it does actually suggest that the Suits now know the commercial potential of the franchise and want to tap in.
It ultimately suggests that the franchise is certainly not dead.
