it's just so HARD to find UNIQUE items! And owned/operated by Black folks?
I go the College Crib catalog, because they said they had a lot of OES stuff, which they don't really, it's like what Beejae said about using the same mold for different orgs.
The watches were a bit much for me, though, a little too "pseudo bling bling" for my conservative tastes.
I think the "My mom/dad/big sister or brother is a" shirts are cute on lil tykes. I actually never had a problem with "Future Mason/Eastern Star" shirts on children, I think they're cute too. Just because it's on a shirt doesn't mean that child will be truly brainwashed! My cousin wore one for Kappa, and now he's a Sigma.
BTW, Does anyone know another Black-owned mail order service? With good selection? Or, a store in Ann Arbor? I'll be there in July.
