About 6dollarshirts
Sometimes you don’t want steak. Sometimes you don’t want to eat out. Sometimes you just want a ham and cheese sandwich. For days like that we have sites like 6dollarshirts who I only found today when they popped up in my gmail sponsored links. Relatively new (2009) and offering the cheapest shirts around - just $6 for one and $50 for 10 (with shipping an additional $20), they’re based in the USA. Some people have said ‘if its too good to be true, its too good to be true,’ on this one we’re going to let you decide, but some negative comments about their customer service have been left in the blog area of this site (see this post) The shirts are mainly pop culture and punnage gags, similar to what you might find on Snorg or Busted Tees (in fact there is some serious design overlap, which you could probably also call infringement
)

Good stuff dude. Buy em.
Well. I live in Australia. They wanted to charge me $68 in shipping, to buy $50 worth of shirts. Can you believe that? They have their ‘10 shirts for 50 dollars’ sign up, trying to lure customers in. I say ‘that’s great,’ and waste half an hour picking the 10 shirts. In the back of my mind, I knew there had to be a catch. I was expecting ‘yeah they’re going to spring $25 shipping on me’. But no. They wanted to charge me $68 for shipping. $68 to send me ten pieces of cotton in the mail. Look. T Shirts in shops are expensive these days. And $118 for ten shirts is still very cheap. It’s possible- even probable- that I would have bought the shirts if they advertised the true cost up front. Certainly if it were 10 for 100. Shirts in the shops routinely cost 50 dollars these days (which is a cruel joke, but that’s how much they cost). So 10 for 100 is a good price. 10 for 118 is also a good price. But I refuse to pay it because they tried to trick me. Tried to lure me in with this idea that I’d be getting 10 shirts for 5 dollars each, then springing a trap at the last moment, either hoping I wouldn’t notice or that I would be too enamoured with the shirts to walk away from the transaction. It’s predatory behaviour. It’s dishonest. So I sent them an angry letter, but I felt that wouldn’t be enough. They need some bad publicity. So I’m here to tell you this company sucks. If you live in the USA then I don’t know, maybe $20 shipping for 10 shirts is acceptable. It probably is. But they tried to charge me $68 to ship ten pieces of cotton. I have bought 15 books from amazon.com, which came in a box that would weigh about 25-30 times the amount that such a package of t-shirts would weigh, and the shipping was less than $20. So let there be no mistake here: the shipping costs they claim are not real. They are inflating the shipping cost, pretending it is high when it isn’t. This is a dishonest company.
I’m actually quite happy with the shirts, the vintage blue is a bit more blue then on the site, but hey: they’re still 6 dollars. You can’t compare screen-colours with actual colors, not even if you print it the picture of the shirt.
It took a little while before I got a tracking number but the package arrive neat and in good shape on the right day.
Although I’m happy with the shirts, I’m gonna return my own shirts because they’re a bit to large, normally I have XL (Live in Holland) but I need an American M (ordered L). That’s gonna cost me 20 euro’s for shipping the L shirts back. I hope I don’t get another 40 bucks for shipping the M shirts from them to me. Cause that’s about a total of 50 euro’s for me to pay because the size chart on the site isn’t really helpfull.
Yeah, I know, it’s across the Atlantic Ocean but I’m still student and 50 euros extra is alot for 6 shirts.
Just an FYI I wish I would have seen Charles’ post earlier. I put an order in 2 weeks ago, and can’t get a response to an email, and no one has ever picked up their phone. Now I did get a confirmation that my order was received and “processed,” but nothing else. No tracking, no ETA, nothing. What I find odd is they claim if your order is delayed someone will contact you. So it would appear that something has to be later than two weeks before they consider it delayed.
Now it appears they received my order correctly (itemized receipt was included in the “processed” notification email,) but let’s see what, if anything, shows up on my door.
I want to give them the benefit of the doubt. When you look at their website some of the “office” pictures make the whole operation seem pretty adhoc/fly by night.
As it stands today, they seem to have a serious service problem that will end up shutting them down in a hurry.
Also, the shipping is ridiculous 10 shirts 3 states, $16. I would have rather had them tie some of that cost into the price of the shirt and be upfront with me. That dishonesty should have been my first clue their would be problems.
Just an FYI in the final chapter… The shirts arrived neatly stuffed into a box that was clearly 1 size to small.
The shirts were better quality than I thought they would be, and they were made by several different manufacturers, most notably Hanes. A few of the lighter colored shirts were nearly sheer when a single side was held against my hand, but nothing I would consider unwearable.
My only real complaint besides time and lack of communication was the quality of the screen print itself… With the shirts being pressed together so tightly in the undersized box I could actually hear the screen-print making a peeling sound as I pried the shirts apart. As a result two of the screen prints had little (no bigger than 1/8 by 1/8) sections of the print peel off the shirt before I even put it on… Really an annoyance more than anything else…
Would I ever order from them again? I might but I would be hard pressed to do so.
Hope this experience helps someone else out there.
I bit, and got bitten. The shipping was a bit high ($20 for 10 shirts) but I pulled the trigger anyway thinking what the hell, they’re $5 shirts (when you buy 10). It took 3 weeks to ship, they completely screwed up my order, and their customer service is non-existent (by phone or email). To turn a couple of clichés, you get what you pay for (not this time), and if it is too good to be true, it most definitely is.
6dollarshirts.com is the worst company ever!
ABSOLUTE GARBAGE COMPANY. LIED TO ME ABOUT SHIPPING TIME (MORE THAN A WEEK LATE ON EVEN SENDING MY ORDER OUT!). THE QUALITY OF THE T-SHIRTS IS VERY LOW, AS WELL. NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT THEY CAN’T EVEN CENTER THEIR T-SHIRTS DESIGNS! OF THE TEN SHIRTS I BOUGHT, 3 ARE MASSIVELY OFF-CENTER! THEY REFUSE TO RESPOND/GIVE A REFUND/ACKNOWLEDGE YOU EXIST.
STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY, REGARDLESS OF HOW CHEAP THEY ARE! THE PEOPLE WORKING THERE ARE THE PROBLEM.
UPDATE as of 9/14/09: They did finally contact me last week after a month, apologized and sent me my return order.
SCAM ALERT!!!! The company is also marketed under threadpit.com. A lot of customers never gotten their ordered products while their credit cards have been charged. I personally received 2 of my orders about a month after ordering, so I was lucky in that regard if you can call it that.
However when I needed to exchange the items (sizes run small), I was told to send them back with a $5 reshipping fee and they will send me the exchange. I got delivery confirmation from the post office that they received my package with the small shirts on august 3rd, but as of now Sept 4th, I haven’t received anything.
They don’t answer emails, don’t answer the phone and don’t return messages. Don’t order from them unless you want to get ripped off!!
