Re: Heart-warming holiday story...

Nice, it is kinda like the time I sent out a couple t-shirts within 24 hrs off E-bay, but forgot that they were 'not' paid for yet. Ultimately, the people paid up after receiving the shirts!

Re: Blocked bidders

Omg, what a huge list of a-holes!!! I block all international bidders on eBay and seemed to have lucked out so far being a low volume peddler. Thanks for the lists!

Re: Ebay 30 day selling limit?

So, I take it this email is norm. Just when I started putting 10 auctions at a time, I get my money held for 21 days (if i dont get feedback) and they limit me even though I should have more according to my 50 auctions a month. I guess suck is an adjective for them.

I feel the same way about dupes. I say put your questionable dupes on Ebay. That is my strategy at this time!

Nike Sneakers shirt???

Hi, I found this shirt that has a killer graphic, and the black and white Icarus character is wearing some Nike shoes in color. The label is a blank unreadable black tag. Has anyone ever seen a shirt like this? Is it 90's or 00's? I have no clue other than the graphic is awesome. Any ideas?

Re: Zig Zag rolling papers tee

Yes, late 70's or very very early 80's. I've got mostly late 70's Sports T shirts. Nice shirt!

Re: HE-Man Masters of Universe Changes Tag?

Oops, I was confusing Changes with the Sneakers label. I saw a 1998 date on a Changes label shirt this past week. Thanks for the correcting!

Re: Double Bull label..?

Nice shirt. The font is late seventies, and the graphic looks very late 70s. It is safe to say this could be from 1978-1981 since the bright colors and whacky designs started up around '83 or so. I have an mid 80s Made in China shirt and the label is sewn on the same way with the same shape.

Re: Howdy

You can't go wrong if it is "made in USA", unless it is ugly. And yes, I agree the blue on white label is always good. Oh, and some early 90s (possibly late 80s) jackets were blue on white label and made in Taiwan. I have seen the Taiwan jackets go for $20 bucks and some change. I have one myself.

Re: Hey Brah, Vintage Maniac Here

Hey CRAZYBUBBA, I could not post it in the forums due to the file size, but I uploaded it into my SHOW Collection. I am pretty sure it is 70s based on my eBay searches, but it could be 80s- I am not the Nike expert. Check it out here: http://www.defunkd.com/product/VI71953/nice-70s-nike-t-shirt ...

Hey Brah, Vintage Maniac Here

Hi All. I am the Maniac- the Vintage Maniac to be exact. I peruse all the thrift stores in LA. Just yesterday I scored an Op terry shirt with a killer surfer pipeline graphic and a pair of 80s Op swim trunks. Each one at a different store. Today, I scored a nice 80s Hang Ten polo shirt. The past ...

Re: HE-Man Masters of Universe Changes Tag?

I think that the Changes shirt could be from around the same time 83/84. I do not think itcwas added too far afterwards. I think it is within reason. He-Man freakin' rules.

Re: Info/prices on a few oddball Vintage Tees Please,

I think Budman could get 30 bucks if lucky on eBay in 7 days. I love the MM shirt and think it would retail on melrose ave nicely. The maggot shirt is a throwaway IMHO. Post some more!

Re: T-Shirt Category Suggestions

How about a surf/beach category for like Op, Hobie, etc.? Or combine with the skater category?

Just a thought!
