Have you noticed that threadless has increased the price of most of their shirts except for the really crappy ones. If it is a good shirt it may cost 17 or even 20
if it stinks it is 15
I'm not buying

prices go UP people!!!
of course if something 'stinks' it is cheaper, if it is not as a big of a seller - it will be cheaper... go in to any shop or gallery and that is just the way it is... things need to turn over.
as it stands for the cost of limited pressing for shirts, threadless, is one of the best for affordability, style and quality.
come to australia and check out the schlock we have to choose from in shops!!! if a NEW tshirt is $18 i am still just as happy to pay for it!

This is a SELECT!

It costs $20, not $25!

The price has gone DOWN!

Sheesh.

i do agree that prices go up, but 26? That's a 9 dollar increase. A little too steep for my pockets unfortunately :(

So does any body else see the irony that this conversation on increased prices (omg....shirts used to be $15 and now they are $17!!!) is being waged on the only Select tee that I have ever seen cost less than $25. Yeah, I've noticed that the price has gone up by like 10% but I've also noticed that the quality has gone up 13 squillion %. The cost-benefit ratio is stupidly high!! Are you getting better gas now that it costs a months wages just to fill up?? I think not.....

Bigger size prints, Better quality inks and way softer, fitted t-shirts are well worth the extra $.

If you haven't bought one yet, all the new shirts are printed on Threadless custom tees witch are just about comparable to American Apparel (old selects) and a huge step up from the fruit of the loom crap the non-Selects used to be printed on. In short, all the new shirts are like Selects and my nipple are happy!

The new shirts are delightfully comfortable. Well worth the extra $2.

Humans generally tend to be resistant to change. And no matter how dynamic we may want to appear, we still crave the dependability of knowing that Threadless non-Select girly tees wld always be $17 and guys' tess always $15 and Select tees always $25. Now that we no longer know all that for SURE, the world suddenly seems unstable, and off-balance, and really...what IS the world coming to??

Grow-up pple! It's just t-shirts! And I love love the threadless tees! And that (certain) designs come in girly XS - fits me perfectly!

And why arent we even thanking the pple of Threadless for making the effort to come up with such fantastic new tees, instead of finding things to complain about?

I'm going back to shopping! =)

I just want to further point out the irony of complaining about the new price structure in a blog about a select tee that is now cheaper because of it.

This will make me giggle later, I'm sure.

Yes they have gone up in price, I have bought some shirts from www.uneetee.com, the quality of the tee and printing is substantially better. but they don't print as many shirts as threadless.

i'm ok with a price increase if it means the good ones don't sell out so fast. guys' smalls last like one day.
