During the years my kids were in college, I loaded up on the spirit wear from their respective schools (t-shirts, hats, 1/4 zip sweaters) as well as tees from various other places along the way.
I would usually wear them around the house, to the beach, running to the store or just wearing them to sleep.
Now that my kids are both out of college, I’ve been picking up some graphic t-shirts with vintage automotive decals that I recall from my youth such as:
Like many kids from my generation who grew up in the early 70’s, I used to collect these decals and affix them to my school book covers, bicycle, stereo speaker cabinets or my bedroom door (which would inevitably **** off my parents
).
The decals on these tshirts provide some fun nostalgia for me.
Recently, I just purchased some tee shirts from Redbubble and Teepublic. The shirts from Redbubble were fine.
However, the decal on the “Hijacker” t-shirt from Teepublic began to peel off after the very first wash (washed as per instructions - warm water, inside out and placed in the dryer).
I thought: “ Oh well, what can you do?”
A few days later I received an email from Teepublic asking if I was happy with my purchase. I made mention of the issue with the decal on the one shirt. They asked for a pic which I snapped from my phone and sent it to them.
The next day I received a shipping confirmation for a new shirt with an email apologizing for the inconvenience and advising me to just keep the other shirt.
Now that’s excellent customer service.
