Post pics of your ADV decals in THIS THREAD ADV patches in Post # 2 BELOW. ADV Flag in Post # 3 Iron-on Decals, below the ADV decals Adhesive Decals: The ADV decals are available in 2 sizes: 6" x 4" and 3" x 2" These are high quality 3M and Avery reflective sheeting decals. Each decal is laminated for longevity. They may look fuzzy and gray in these scans, but they are white with black lettering and are very sharp. They are printed on high quality reflective stock and look at lot better in person than these scans. ADV amber large $6.50 6" x 4": (15 cm x 10 cm) highly reflective ADV amber, $4 3" x 2" (7.5 cm x 5 cm), amber, highly reflective, may be fitted to curved surfaces. ADV white large $6.50 6" x 4": (15 cm x 10 cm) highly reflective ADV small white, $4 3" x 2" (7.5 cm x 5 cm), white highly reflective The small white and amber oval ADV decals, and the FYYFF decal, are suitable for application on both flat and surfaces with compound curves, such the rear of a helmet. These decals are made of a premium 3M highly reflective graphic film, and are also laminated for longevity. Furthermore, you will notice small channels when you peel the decal from the backing paper; this is to facilitate the installation and allows you to reposition the decal if it was not positioned properly. Once you apply pressure - by rubbing on the full surface of the decal before removing the transfer tape - you activate the adhesive and it becomes more aggressive with time. Application not recommended on the helmet's chin bar. It is suitable for lesser compound curves such as on the back of a helmet.. no creases or wrinkles.. On curved luggage: CAUTION! ADV, amber, $4 Triangular highly reflective 3" high x 3.29" wide (~ 7.5 cm high x 8.3 cm wide) CAUTION!

I owe these to some overseas bretheren.... I sent $5 for shipping, if it's not enough, let me know...
Alright, thank you for your orders. I have emailed you to confirm your order. Your orders will be mailed tomorrow by general "air mail", no tracking numbers, and no way to know exactly how long it's going to take, but do keep an eye on your mailman's vehicle in case all of a sudden it's sporting an ADV decal And please be patient.. it is snail mail after all.
Everyone who's ordered decals tonight, I've emailed you a confirmation and will be mailing them in the morning.. I'm going to bed now!!
Thanks. We stayed in the hottub too long to get this done last night. Great work. Now all I need is a t-shirt or two.
Wahoo, Been waiting what seems like ages for ADV decals to be available, with a bit of luck we should get ours just in time for the next trip (Scandinavia, leaving on 26th August) Pack quickly GB BTW - can somebody explain why shipping to Europe takes 3-5 days, yet shipping to US takes 3-14 days? Don't get me wrong, I'm not complainging, just wondering. (Might complain if I was in US and had to wait 2 weeks! )
When I ordered mine late last night I figured that there was no way you would send them out today. GB, you are good man, I don't care what the others say about ya.
I don't know for sure, but when I mail something to the UK or France or Belgium (I run a small mail order business, so I have a lot of exprience with shipping times), on Monday, the package arrives in Europe that same week, sometimes as quicky as Wed!! I have a feeling Canada Post and USPS don't ship regular first class "air mail" by air, I think for the 63 cents stamp to Canada and the 93 cent stamp to the US from Canada, they figure "air mail" means air the mail out before you load it on the truck. Neduro just sent me his most awesome dvd, postmarked July 31 in Colorado, delivered Aug. 14 to me! But to be fair, shipments to the east coast of the US are much quicker to arrive than shipments to the west coast. They must be using much slower "planes".
All of last night's orders were shipped today and you were contacted by email to confirm this. Anyone sending orders today, I will ship them tomorrow, unless I can get out this afternoon, I will then do so today.
