Re: Japanese Ebay Bidders With Private Feedback

Ha - I always thought it was "Make Money Stuffing Envelopes!" The mail order I always dreamed of as a kid. I'm scared of the outside world now.

Re: Japanese Ebay Bidders With Private Feedback

90% of all the specialized vintage t-shirt stores on eBay do most of their buying on eBay with secondary private accounts. I did it. It's the way it has to be done, once you associate your account with rock tees. I realized they were a needle in a haystack at warehouses. Unfortunately there's no rag ...

Re: Shipping International Without Tracking

A package probably 2-3 weeks. However, t-shirts I manage to get there pretty quickly so here's a good tip if you're only shipping 1 shirt. Use the poly mailers, fold the shirt as neatly and thinly as you can so it's as flat as possible. Then request to mail it as letter mail...they will check that ...

Re: Shipping International Without Tracking

Must be a newer service...tracking never used to be available outside Canada or the US unless you used a courier, which was way too expensive. So I just gave up and stopped asking about it and always just mailed things standard air mail. Venture One card all the way! You'll learn to dislike CP ...

Re: Shipping International Without Tracking

It's a Canada Post service? or courier offered through the counter? I haven't tried recently but they never offered international tracking prior. If you were sending to Japan, Aus, Germany, you had to just cross your fingers. Tracking was only available to US/Can shipments and that's it unless you ...

Re: Post your most obscure band t-shirts

The one that has always baffled me is "Chilling Vision" I purchased it from a record store three years back that was liquidating all the old promo shirts on eBay. Stormcrow will probably remember Bills: http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=200471543897 It was a goldmine of every ...

Re: Looking for a brand of shirt....

Just a quick background, Ritchie is involved in making an indie film that will contain custom vintage wardrobe. Don't worry he's not looking to make repros. All of the big modern day t-shirt producers make thick 100% cotton crap that are completely skewed in sizing. We all hate them. It's a sad ...

Re: vintage CHANEL gold chains satin jacket

Yup someone scored a deal! I find watchers to be a way less meaningful stat than it was years ago, and there's so much less activity in the closing hours as there once was too, dag nabbit!

My 10 eBay Vintage Tee Selling Tips

After 10 years of selling on eBay (5 of which were vintage t-shirt years) I'm closing my store. Sure, I may surface with the odd special auctions from time to time but consider me retired. :( I can't say that I'm sad about the grueling listing process we all endure, definitely one of the downsides ...

Re: Best Books on Vintage Tees/Clothing?

I tried to interview him, but he's not so good on the ol' internet.

Another book called, "T-Shirts" By Susan Miller has all mid 90s and beyond, lots of Gildan, Delta, and modern FOTL tags.
