Custom Discs - thoughts appreciated

[stpitner]

I'm trying to decide what to do for IOS #3 as far as disc supply, and since I'm ordering mainly for all of you that are playing in the tournament and have reward dollars to spend, what would you prefer to spend it on?

Right now if I order any custom discs for IOS #3, it would be from Discraft.  I'm almost out of CryZtal Buzzz's, and I know that's a very popular item.

If I did get a custom stamp order, would you want to see a tournament series stamp (similar to the generic 2011 IOS stamp), or would you rather have a custom stamp specific to IOS #3?

Would you rather see no custom stamp at all? If I do that, then I can't order CryZtal plastic, but I could make sure that everything else is well stocked (more stock Wizards, more dvd's, more variety items).

It's tough because my budget of spending from tournament to tournament is not a ton, but getting a custom stamp order eats up most of it.

So thoughts and opinions are appreciated!

Here's a vote for more SSS wizards. 

I guess this means I am not in favor of the custom stamp order here.

The stamp don't matter to me that much, I need bright orange discs, you normally have some and that's what I get.I just ordered 80 bucks worth of orange DGA squalls online, not many peeps use them so I understand why you don't stock them.

orange champ destroyers
orange  champ wraths

yay discraft! id like to see Z or ESP (not FLX) drones if possible. and buzzz's in anything but regular Z. as for stamps...SMALL!!!! and simple.

as far as supply, whats your ability to get Lat64 discs? i know rivers, flows, pains, pures, and fuses are quite popular. personally, id like to see Havocs as well.

I like the custom stamps and have probably picked up more discs because they have the stamp. That said, weight and color are more important to me than the stamp.

I agree and disagree.  The stamp really doesn't matter to me.  Weight is the number one criterion for me.  I like discs in the mid to upperr 160's and its hard to find those discs.  If I see a 167 Roc I really don't care if its custom stamped for an IOS, an event I've never heard of, or simply has a lame line drawing of a bird.

@ Steven - I think the ESP comets are already sold out.  I didn't get a chance to order them (they at least aren't on the list to order anymore)

@ Chris - yeah, I think other brands would come before DGA, like ABC Discs or possibly Lat 64.

@smyith - the only drones available to order right now are in Pro-D, and even then Discraft only has weights in the low to mid 160 gram range, nothing heavy.  I don't know what's going on with Drones.  Lat 64 is a possibility, but it's tougher to get since they are an import and I have to go through a distributor.  But if I do get Lat 64 I can get Ching at the same time.

so it looks like so far that stamps aren't really a huge deal, although if they are there small and simple is the preference (lots of people like the simple and small design).  There's more of a desire for my selection to get even more expansive, which is fine.  I do what I can.

I'm hoping at some point to get a bunch more Clash DVD's.  Clash #9 is just about to come out!

Bummer about the comets

Too bad I just now saw this thread, Steve. I was playing Mt. Airy this weekend and they had a bunch of ESP Comets in their pro shop. I picked up 3 for myself.
