Finding that one-of-a-kind t-shirt can be difficult even though there are many t-shirt printing companies online. But one company, Shirt.woot.com, which began selling t-shirts online in July, has taken this search seriously by selling selected shirts for one day only and printing a small number of one-thousand shirts or less. Since the launch of this new feature last week, they have sold out of shirts within twenty minutes or less in some cases. “People feel like they’re winning. There’s huge value for the person who finds it,” said production manager for silk screened t-shirts, Thomas Williams.While selling printed T-shirts in limited runs is not unusual, Shirt.woot.com advertises their shirts as they go on sale and ends the sale the same day at midnight. They are even listed in Yahoo’s ‘deal of the day’. This form of selling the t-shirts has helped the company gain more exposure in the printed T-shirts market online.
All shirts on the website are made on-site in Carrollton, Texas, USA in a warehouse using American Apparel t-shirts. The company, which asks for artwork submissions, picks different themes each week that artists and others can use as a guide. “We will look at every submission, but unfortunately, we might not be able to respond to everyone. Your chances are much, much better if you don’t act like a total jerk,” is written in the FAQ section on the website.

the chance to review the image is great for checking everything over one last time before printing. the time between reviewing the print and delivery was another positive, taking only a couple of days. my friends were really pleased with the finished items. unfortunately i was out when the courier called. he didn't note the date or time of his attempted delivery on his card and he hadn't filled in when or if he would attempt delivery again. on repeatedly phoning the company on a friday between 4:50 and 6 i got no answer. i then tried again on the monday morning, but once again i got no answer. after phoning clothes2order they resolved everything. i realise this is outwith the control of clothes2order, but it soured an otherwise excellent service.
