You run Custom Tees, LLC, a business in Tucson that does custom printing on apparel. You have decided to make the switch to fair trade and organic t-shirts, so you need a new supplier for your t-shirts. You have reached out to Good Earth T's for this purpose. Good Earth T's sent you some sample t-shirts and you are very happy with the quality, and would like to purchase an initial lot of 500 white t-shirts in varying men's and women's sizes.

Good Earth T's has promised t-shirts are made of ringspun cotton of at least 30 "singles" (like a thread count), 100% organic, and fair trade produced. They also promised to deliver shirts to your facility in Tucson within 10 days of placing an order. You agreed to pay $15 each for short-sleeve white shirts.

Good Earth T's sent you the attached proposed contract to sign. You must review it and make revisions if needed before signing. Warning: This proposed contract is drafted to be favorable to Good Earth, not you.
