The thing is, I don't really see the vultures descending on this thread as heavily as usually happens in these cases.
-Op offers sub-par product with questionable charity link - not offering justgiving/movember account as payment option.
-Forum offers constructive critiscm and low-end banter
-Op calls everyone arseholes and wishes cancer on them.
How exactly is he the victim and feeling delicate?
If they were slightly better made(not much effort/no money req) and the op wasn't continually rude/aggressive I'd be up for it even thought I don't use a holster as hey it's charity, as it stands however, and the continued 'me me me me' attitude I wouldn't give a penny.
^this.
To the OP, it was never totally convincing that this was genuine rather than a emotional-blackmail-based scam to extract money from hipsters. Following that you somewhat failed to distinguish between banter and genuinely useful advice and responded to them all, pretty much instantly with, essentially, "you're all arseholes (LOL!)" It's also worth bearing in mind that there is some really nice handmade stuff for sale on here and, whether it's for charity or not, these are people's baseline.
So, good luck with the fundraising, it's a nice idea (in both senses) but needs better execution and marketing.
