I just remembered that I placed an order for a TDIclub sticker in June, and well I still don't have it LOL. It was only 4 bucks so I'm not upset if it ended up just being a donation, but I am curious if that sticker does exist somewhere out there.
Are orders for TDIclub merch still available?

I ordered some merch last october and never got it. Actually forgot about it until my son asked about it a few days ago. I was just outside the 180 days window for paypal resolution as it seems fred isn’t responding.

Before anyone runs to the dispute resolution folks, please take a look at what happens to other forums (golfmk7.com, vwvortex.com, to name just two examples) when the owner decides that it's more hassle than it's worth to keep the site "nice".
Once someone decides that they need to make a profit, or otherwise make money, off one of these boards, the ad insertion gets to the point where it's just so grotesque to be near unusable (looking at you, golfmk7.com).
So, if you ordered something that didn't show up, contact Fred or one of the forum admins....or just as @redey1290 did above, consider it a donation to help keep this site un-enshittified.

Yeah and thats what i did. Tried to contact fred first (twice via his email and his web feedback page and later also a moderator on how to contact the keeper of merchandise) then after the weekend tried the resolution method but its been too long. Sent fred another query. I don’t mind the donation aspect which was in the back of my mind anyway since i’ve been on here 23 years now but it would be nice to at least have any correspondence on this. I am not going to hack this to death. If i hear nothing then its a donation and end of story.

Yeah that was the other mod i sent a query DM to.
Woah, once again I've forgotten about this haha.
Honestly, I didn't even bother contacting anyone about it, but seeing as your experience wasn't very fruitful, I don't think I'll start bothering anyone now. And yeah, not trying to hack this to death either. Maybe a sign of life and a "hey im not doing merch anymore" some day would be nice though

Pretty much. I do recall trying to contact them after i had ordered since i heard nothing about shipping but didn’t get a response and then it fell off my radar. It is what it is.
