I remember going to Sister to Sister in DC, and there being a lot of vendors who had a nice selection of stuff for each of the Fab Four. One vendor only focused on AKA and DST, I'd noticed as I looked at her display. When she saw that I hadnt moved, she asked me if I needed assistance, I told her no. She then offered me a card, which I declined. I then told her that I could see that she had no Zeta items so my money and I were going elsewhere. (I was broker than broke, but ya'll get my point).

How you gonna be at an event for all four sororities and not have all four showcased?

THAT doesnt make sense.

And the sad thing is that some of the stuff she had was really CUTE, but if I dont see ZFB anywhere, then I dont buy. PERIOD.

If we see things that are good, then we need to let other members know. When we see things that are bad, we need to let the OWNERS know and tell others. It's a business, they respond to money.

And not all Zetas (or AKAS or SGRhos or Deltas) are XXL. I wear a medium and cant find a shirt to save my life sometimes. Why not just pack a few of EACH size, how about doing that?

I attend the 18th Annual Art Expo in Philadelphia this past Saturday. I stopped by an art vendor that had AKA and DST and asked why weren't there any for Zeta's and SGRho's. He said they never sell Zeta or SGRho so that don't carry them with them to every event.

He also told me how the artist did extensive research and found that AKA and DST would purchase his artwork.

I told him that it's hard for me to believe that this "extensive" research revealed that Zetas and SGRhos wouldn't purchase his artwork. (It's the series with a woman posing on a pedestal).

I have found the internet is the best resource for getting stuff at a reasonable price w/o the hassle of trying to convince someone to carry your stuff. My sorority usually orders from www.somethinggreek.com or www.greekgiftsetc.com. Another place that has come really cute stuff is www.joetoga.com, but they take about 2 weeks to get your stuff out.

Sounds to me like he was full of a lot of "extensive" stuff!!!

I have that picture "The Five Pearls" on my wall at home.

I have found that decent Zeta nalia is hard to come by on a daily basis. So now, I just wait until conferences to buy. I was able to get a good amount of nalia at the Atlantic Regional Conference last month. Look out Boule!

Quite a few of my chapter Sorors like to make things by hand also. I made a T-Shirt that only cost about $9-that included the shirt and the decals.

I am not in any of the D9 sororities but I have some associates that are. From what I can see from the different sites that they showed me and that I have personally researched, alot of the stores carry the 'nalia the see will have "repeat" performance. If your org is not visiting the store, they will carry your stuff less and less.

Another that a co-worker who is a SgRho brought up was that, alot of the stores are owned by ppl in the D9, and, of course, they will carry their organization and the ones most closest to their chapter 'nalia.

I am not sure if this is true for all, but this what I am told.

I have a soror who told me about www.justgreek.com. She ordered her jacket from there and she likes it a lot! The pricing was nice and she got what SHE wanted on her jacket! When I get me some moo-la, I will definitely go to justgreek.com and order me somethings!
