Re: Need Help Identifying This "Hero" Tshirt

That's Link from Zelda. Highly reproduced. Cool, but not at all vintage.

Re: Ebay 30 day selling limit?

They might raise your limit. They didn't for me when I called. They said it would raise automatically when they reviewed my account at the end of the month and then when that happened, it raised slightly. Still worth a call, but I never get my hopes up when dealing with them.

Re: The Mysterious Occurrence Of The Sewn in Tag

I'm just going to remove the listings, rather than the tags. But still a counterpoint: there are crappy new shirts with tags like this too. More than we think. We don't see them because we don't bother to look closely enough. I just came home from one thrift store and just to check as I was going th...

Re: The Mysterious Occurrence Of The Sewn in Tag

Haha! I notice how ONE of the shirts was in pristine condition with a worn tag. ;) But, no, the Spruce tee tag is good and the "Dive" shirt definitely "shows it's age without any flaws". Can we be these Hardy Boys? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardy_Boyz Now I'm scrounging ebay a...

Re: The Mysterious Occurrence Of The Sewn in Tag

I guess that could be it. But it still seems beyond unlikely to me. This is why we need some old people in on this. Does anyone know anybody that worked in the shirt biz back in the day? In a print shop, or anything, that may be able to say whether they saw anything like this?

Re: The Mysterious Occurrence Of The Sewn in Tag

I would agree- if I thought that this was something that some one had recently altered. But I still believe that this was done, for whatever reason, by the manufacturer. You can currently go into outlet stores and find all sorts of weird stitching on garments that would keep them out of the regular ...

Re: The Mysterious Occurrence Of The Sewn in Tag

And thinking further about this, even though I think what I have is harmless and totally legit, we do need to keep these off the site. I do think it should be policy so that none of those Nikes with questionable tags or anything like that come up here. I will leave those listings up for a couple of ...

Re: The Mysterious Occurrence Of The Sewn in Tag

Well, shucks, I'll jump in here. Although there's been debate about tags like this before (Nike tee with a rayon blend Sportswear tag? To quote Elaine [and for the second Seinfeld quote on the board today]: "Fake, fake, fake, fake".), I whole-heartedly believe that this kind of tagging was...
