I was shopping today at wood-field and i saw a store called Untitled (that is really the name of the store) and it was having a 75% off sale so i went in and was looking around and saw the Bunny and Gopher shirt but i didn't recognize it so i just passed over then i went to the mens section on accident and saw Color in the Dark and i got mad because there in the store was threadless and it had the threadless tag and the first edition print on the collar. So i storm out and tell my mom and she asked how much they were selling it for and they were selling for $27........... ALMOST $10 MORE!!!!

i was just wondering if anyone saw other threadless shirts in other stores and plus is threadless selling their shirts to stores??

Yep, Threadless sells in bulk to retailers. At least they used to. But yeah, don't freak out.

You've got to understand that if you buy a tee shirt from a shop instead of the company their costs are higher, true their getting a tee shirt at a whole say price but its still above what threadless buys them at.



On top of that they have a shipping fee to get them to their store in bulk, then they have their over heads (such as wages, rent and bills) and finally they have to make a profit.



If the profit was only a dollar it probably wouldnt be worth the effort they put into buying the tees which is why they were $10 more.

I saw a gallery selling them once, but I'm not sure it was legit
