Re: Any info on this Motorhead shirt and brand?
Also noteworthy is that ALL the t-shirt I received were single-color prints. And last, below are photos of another shirt where remnants of the original tag are clear and you can see on the back where the Schwartz tag was stitched in. Schwartz Pink 01.jpg Schwartz Pink 02.jpg Schwartz Pink 03.jpg

Re: Any info on this Motorhead shirt and brand?
I would RUN from anything with this tag. Backstory: I buy liquidation lots and periodically I search for vintage. Finally a few lots came up by Schwartz and I bought a lot of 40 t-shirts, supposedly sitting in boxes for years, deadstock. Um - NO. There were all brand new with some of the worst ...

Re: Metallica 1988 'One' Landmine shirt
Like the other one, I'm pretty sure it's not vintage. It's made in China; an '88 tee would be USA

Re: Metallica Caretaker shirt, is it vintage & price plz?
I'd venture to say it's not vintage. It was made in China. A tee from 1994 would probably either state Made in USA or Assembled/Made in Mexico with USA fabric.

Re: Ensuring Buyers Review Item Description Issues
One other thing for @cokenner: I find it helpful to list the modern size in the title vs. the tag size since buyers will often include their size in the search string. A t-shirt that is tagged XL, but measures like a medium I'll title as "Sz M" or "Fits Sz M". I provide the tag size in the ...

Re: Dying Shirts
I got my hands on a Fred Babb t-shirt that had a big sun fade square in the middle of it. So I did a reverse tie dye on it. May not be everyone's cup o' tea, but I like it.

Re: eBay 2014 Spring Seller Update
After a very long conversation with a rep, I feel like he finally leveled with me. Sellers will be penalized if an item takes longer than expected to arrive, regardless of when it was sent. Most sellers use USPS, and USPS has kind of been sucking lately. Their occasional delayed deliveries have ...

Re: Hawaiian Shirt from 1973
Hard to determine it's worth, but I would put it up for auction with a starting bid of $49.99 and see who bites. It's got a nice print, so make sure you get nice close-ups. Some of the business-related Hawaiian shirts do pretty well (although they're usually sports, beer or gas related), but ...

Haring Free South Africa T-Shirt
I just purchased this t-shirt. I know the design is from 1985 (I'm dating myself here because I was a club kid at the time). It is printed on an 80s FOL t-shirt, which I guess would fit in the timeline since Pop Shop didn't open until 1986 I think. Tag is a size S, but pit-to-pit is 19" and length ...

Re: Cows of New York T-Shirt
This is cool! Isn't it?! I tend to hoard the better NYC tees for myself, so this one may stick around in my rotation for a while. My best guess on this tee is that it was probably from a cattle convention that year. Other than that, I can't think of any reason at all to associate cows with NYC ...

Re: Logo 7 tag
I don't think a "100" would change into "50" from fading
Seriously, I'd be willing to bet a chunk of change that the "50% Polyester" part was stitched up into the fabric under the top tag.

Cows of New York T-Shirt
I picked up this t-shirt thinking it was tied into the Cows on Parade exhibit that was in NYC back in 2000. I lived there back then and it was very cool to see the various cows around the city. Anywho, when I started cataloguing, I realized that this t-shirt is NOT tied into the exhibit, but was ...
