Paraphanelia for Growing organizations

PhoenixGrad · #1 10-03-2000, 10:02 AM

It's been awfully quiet in here lately, so here's a new question. What online Greek para sites are most open to growing national organizations? What about local shops? Any suggestions?

Finally, I found the links to my Chapter's favorites:

My chapter recently purchased lavaliers from Hollow Tree, based in Edmond, OK. They have an 800-number. We were very impressed by the quality of the jewellry (especially compared to the cost). I highly recommend them!

I'm not entirely sure, but I think there is no minimum order on certain items. Also, they carry a variety BGLO 'nalia.

I also like The Apothem and Suzy's Creations (both on Campus Corner in Norman, OK). The Apothem has done nice custome-made hats for sisters before, and Suzy's Creations does emroidered work (like lettered sweatshirts, etc.) If anyone likes, I can get contact info for Suzy's.

Hey,
Well me and my sisters usually go w/ either eGreek.com or either Greek Central. Also, Greek 101 but they are quite slow

Good stuff, but slow. They actually mispelled the word "multicultural" on a shirt I ordered and I called them to get a replacement. They were really nice and they rush ordered me a new one.

That was good. But it took FOREVER for me to get the first one. But those are the main ones we go with...mainly b/c very few places carry peach. So we are still looking for sites that carry peach. There are a few others we have found, but those are our favs.

Hi girls! I have a greek site that has an entire "Great for Locals" department, and we have NO minimums! It has been listed throughout greekchat.com several times. We are always willing to work with our customers, especially locals, as we know it is often hard to find cool merchandise for your group. If you would like the name of our site you can email me at:
annikajan@aol.com

Two sites: both of which do custom work you definitely don't have to be nationally known to work with either of them

ThisGreek - www.thisgreek.com

Ujamaa - www.greekgarage.com

Thanks for these web pages. Although I'm not greek I have found a number of CUTE little things that my Grrek friends would absolutely enjoy

Hey Ladies, Hope you don't mind me jumpin in :C)

My sorority, Gamma Sigma Sigma (www.gammasigonline.org) isn't an up-and-coming, but we sometimes have a hard time finding peri. I personally recommend The Greekshop-they are relatively fast (I made an order and it took about 3 weeks to get it back) and they do great work. It was worth the wait.

The website is: www.thegreekshop.com

And they do stuff for locals!

Hi! I am a member of Alpha Omicron Pi (national). I just started my own web-based business selling watercolors and prints. I have a whole section of sorority originals and prints which can be adapted to any organization INCLUDING LOCALS!! Check it out at: http://marialouise.hypermart.net
All prints can be modified specifically to your sorority. For any sorority not currently in my books, my minimum purchase is only three per each new design.
Take care!

Usually, we contact other chapters to find out where they ordered certain items or what companies they have used. Also, there is a website: www.greeknation.com who caters to some of the LGLO's and MCGLO's.

ZChi4Life · #13 10-05-2002, 01:15 PM

Hey everyone,

I know we're sharing places TO go for greek peri, but here's a place to NOT go to: connectsports.com

Don't do it! They are shaaaaady! My chapter ordered some stuff from them and needless to say, they jacked it up! DRAMA DRAMA! I dont know how they handle small orders, but large ones....not good. We ordered some jackets and shirts from them.....the jackets have numbers on the back and they were totally the wrong color! It was weird b/c they got the colors right on the front of the jacket

I didn't see the t-shirts that were ordered but my sisters said they were also messed up. We tried sending them back and do you know they said they are going outta business!! So we can't return them. HOWEVER, I just went to their website and it's still running! AND not only is it still up, but they took the liberty to put up a picture of one of the jackets we ordered!!

They didn't even ask us if they could do that!! What the deal w/ that?! SHADY!

On another note, I just ordered a silver lavelier from greekgifts.com! My lavelier was only $8.95! Sweet right? Yea most places wanted at least $15 or up for it. So if you're looking for a cheap lavelier, there ya go
