what year exactly did a one color t-shirt begin retailing for $25.99?
I used to run a screenprinting business and could produce similar quality shirts for $4 a piece if there was any kind of volume ordered.

This is a tribute to the Wu-tang Clan. It's also a limited promo shirt. Not many were made, and it was made at high cost so I make just enough to pay for the shirts. That's why it's more of a promotional shirt. Get am' while they're hot!
$25.99? C'mon...

maybe those tees were hand-knitted from the pubic hair of virgin unicorns....

shitty though to see somebody doing there thing, and then corporate pirates roll in, Nike and Mac are both guilty lately of ripping too weren't they?

Seriously, these shirts are all over-priced. I just bought a few more in the last few days, but I'm definitely just making my own after this. Some designs are hard to do on your own, but most aren't difficult if enough effort is made.

UO are always on the rip, my stats showed up lots of hits from an IP named urbanoutfitters and I was wondering if they were going to rip anything, maybe they did who knows, probably I didn't make the grade haha but anyway, my point is, UO are allover NT so beware - nothing is safe!!

i realise that tshirts can be printed on the cheap and offer quality too but theres also got to be a decent markup if you are wanting to run a small business creating and selling tshirts.
i personally dont think $25 is a lot of money for a tshirt. i've paid a lot more (in pounds) in the past if its something i've wanted.
youd be lucky if you saw a shirt in UO for $25!!
people who are used to seeing tshirts online at places like THREADLESS for $10 might not pay $25.
and retailers as big as threadless can afford to flog their stuff a lot lot cheaperI think if something is genuinely a 'one of 25' or 'one of 50' its worth $25
