The Nat'l forest is down in SoCal where I used to live and I knew about it long before I knew about Cleveland where I live now. Is this one of your shirts ? Iffen it is, I'll get one. It has a dual meaning.

There are a few tricks to find out where a buyer came from, but none of them are on the Amazon side. Unless you have a FBA store or something, I think. I haven't gotten into it that far. I need to put a Facebook pixel on my website (and get the website repaired and working right). I thought I'd have a chance to dink around with my site, get a proper store set up, but they just tiered me up so I have a lot of open slots now. /norest

I don't imagine there's anyway to find out who they buyer was, is there? It doesn't really matter anyhow. One shirt has this note on the dashboard: Live (pending removal) Days remaining: 26. I'm not sure why; it's not the oldest submission but it may be the only "premium" shirt.

Leave it to Amazon to have a cool 404, though. The 'product not found' page gives a link allowing the viewer to get to know the dogs of Amazon.

Mrs. Islander has a cousin in Europe that overbuys clothes. She is often the beneficiary of the occasional purge. I've always been kind of fascinated by the random use of English words on their clothes with no context or meaning.
