    My Headbands Lame? Help Me Figure It Out

    Well today, while checking my thread on PBN regarding my Designer headbands, I noticed Timebomb has said, that they were a lame attempt and if I was going to do them, do them right. Now, I have had many happy customers with my headbands, but for some odd reason, I was hurt that he said they were a lame attempt. Now since Dism219r on PBN was the first to sell designer headbands, ever since I got into selling them, I have gotten alot of hate IM's from people, tell me I have a bad product(I am using more civilized wording then they did) Now I am here to ask AO, because AO has helped me solve alot of my problems regarding paintball and other problems I have had.

    So I am going to ask, are my headband lame, if they are, what can I do to improve them, so I can better serve the consumer.

    Now I know some people are not into the whole designer fabric thing, but if you could just help me out on this one, come up with some idea, that could help, I would appreciate it.

    Thanks to everyone you can help.

    Here are the pics of each of my headband...

    Well, while I can't really say much for the print, they look well made. It's cool to see some AO prod here. Can you make them special?

        Just don't listen to those people who criticize your product, your by no means saying your a professional or acting liking your one. They just have too much time on their hands and they love to kiss the behinds of mods over there on Pbnation.

        Now for tips on your products, when you look at paintball clothing these days, there most always bright colors. This is not meant as criticism, but as a suggestion in that your dump the first and last picture bands. They look very much like a pattern you'd see on a purse or skirt or something. My suggestion is add color, get some type of fabric people might not use or something that adds benefit to the wearer (like polyester is very heavy and not very breathable as its made more for durability, if looking for something light and breathable look at fabric blends such as super 120's). I'm sure if you go to a fabric store, you will see loads of bright color options, possibly even get some patches or something that could add a uniqueness for the individual who wants them.

        And if they still want to diss you, just remember you have a product and they don't. Your out there trying.

          I think they were just mad because you were "invading their turf," so to speak.

          I attempted to defend your glory after time bomb posted.

          Ignore them... looking at the picture, there is NOTHING wrong with them AT ALL. I bought mine from you and not the other guy because yours are 1), cheaper, 2), look as good as his, and 3) your not a jerk. Your one of the easiest people ive dealt with, and fun to talk to to boot.

          Ignore the a... I mean, "jerk" wipe.

                Don't worry about it. People are just mad you are taking buisness from that other mod who sells his for 30 a piece. Once people start selling things that undercut the original maker, people get mad. I sell knock off sandanas for only 10 bucks on pbn, and people knock on them all the time. I don't really care, they are selling like hot cakes.

                      Honestly I don't wear headbands, but yours look good.

                        Not a plug. Check out the thread on PBN.

                        Just a bunch of jerks knocking his product because they dont want to be 1 upped and lose business.

                          Burberry headbands sell, but the big burberry seller, is the burberry barrel covers I make, those are the hottest thing I have, along with the LV headbands and barrel covers.
