they basically stole the image(s) and printed them (crappily) on their own shirts, claiming them to be "vintage"... the things that they were claiming to be vintage CLEARLY weren't... old navy lady blazers with some kind of random iron-on deer, veloure (?sp) blazers made to look "slightly worn", I mean... if you're gonna do that, at LEAST cut the freaking tags out!

I really want ot go back to that smelly, shady store and see if i can get some images... I dont know how im gonna do that though... mebbe take some sketchy cellphone pics? set my camera to movie mode and then take still images from that? I need these images so I can go ahead and make some kind of formal complaint or something...

That brings me to my next.... uh, point? Yeah sure. Who exactly would I have to talk to (on this site) about seeing someone doing this? This all came at me kinda fast, and seeing as how I *heart* threadless oh-so-much, I just feel like if I don't do anything, this'll just get worse.

Another problem: I don't think threadless is the only site they're 'stealing' from; I visit alot of t-shirt sites. Why? Because I have no freaking life. Im seeing designs that im prettysure I have see over at other sites like bustedtees.com, palmercash.com, tshirthell.com etc etc.

I do not like this, sam i am. I do not like fake shirts and ham.

I need to get to sleep now... Ive been sleeping terribbly lately and it's taking it's toll on everything that I do. I guess it doesn't help that it's finals time, I didn't take any time off work (not that i possibly could have anyways...!), and I work 5-6 days a week while going to class for thr----- oh snap. This was suppose to be a business blog-post, not a personal-bitching-post. Sorry y'all...

But yeah... help?

I was at this Art Walk last Friday and there was this guy selling:

"hand printed art shirts" for like $20



You know what shirt he completely ripped off?

Flowers in the Attic.

you know, threadless does sell shirts to some stores. How do you know this isn't legit? What about selling used shirts?

these weren't the threadless shirts... the cuts and materials were totally different... you can tell the quality of the print was below par... something done as an experiment in the basement of some emo 13-year-old (not knocking on them, using them as an example). how long ago was it that threadless started printing the label in the back of the shirts... 1 or 2 years ago? i cant remember...
3 days later
