About

June 12, 2008 by Jimmy J 

I founded Defunkd in the summer of 2004 as a genuine vintage t-shirt store on eBay. In the years that followed I sold over 3500 tees and maintained near perfect feedback rating doing so. In 2007 I was recognized by eBay and awarded for my efforts. After paying my dues in dusty warehouses and thrift shops [cough] in 2008 I shifted my entire focus online and Defunkd was enhanced in blog and forum format. Today, thanks to a community effort from our members, Defunkd is the world’s leading vintage t-shirt resource. When your torso needs a real vintage t-shirt, Defunkd has your back.
