Still here! Yapping About Threadless Tees

I thought I was going to close down this blog temporarily for the period of time I'll be in school. But I decided not to cause the moment I looked back I realized how much of a hobby this is. Doesn't even matter if no one visits - it's just a place I want to be, kinda like home. However, may not be updating as frequently though.

Let's talk about Threadless tees. Threadless has awesome t shirts designed by various designers. I decided to buy my first Threadless tee since they had a sale and some of my coworkers decided to do a bulk order - so I thought why not?

First warning I got from the website regarding this shirt was that due to the type of ink printing used on this shirt, some areas of the shirt such as the seams portion may not absorb the ink too well. Well that's fine if it doesn't come out clean. So I bought the shirt anyway. Turned out I shouldn't have risked it. The printing was worse than I thought. It's not lack of ink or a misprint. More like they printed on the shirt when the bottom edge was folded.. You can literally see the creases that appeared on the shirt.

Right there.

Well, the first thought that came to mind was an exchange or a refund. They don't expect me to pay for the shipping for the return or exchange but they don't pay you back for the shipping you spent the first time upon receiving the messed up shirt. So, I decided to keep it since going through that hassle means losing out on a shirt and then having paid them $5 shipping for nothing. The shirt itself was $10. Kinda cute but the ink feels rough (white part) and might even come off after a few washes.


It's so darn cute. When worn the face isn't as visible but what the hey, I'm a sucker for cute stuff.
