We’ve posted about Teextile t-shirt contest community a few times here at Buy Tees. For those who have been having problems with the site, just to let you know they have just relaunched with a new and improved version of the site called Teextile 2.0. This isn’t just a glossy redesign, Teextile have fundamentally changed the way they operate, here’s how:

The biggest change many of you might will notice (and maybe slightly confused with), is the way the shop works now. Teextile are no longer offering a new series of 5 shirts every week, but we will continually sell 4 shirts, releasing a minimum of 1 new shirt a week which would replace the design with the lowest sales… so some designs may be up for longer than a week, while others might only be up for 2 days, with our classic countdown showing up on its last day for sale.

As they continue to grow, they will begin to feature more than 4 designs in the future, but for now 4 is a good number to test things out. This new shop system will also allow them to feature photography, so keep an eye out for that pretty soon.

It must be stated that this is technically a beta launch, they still have some problems to work out and some shirts to send out, so they we won’t officially be launching till Monday 1st February, once they’ve ironed out all of the kinks in the system. So if your looking for an update on your order, fill out your info on their contact page and you will be given a tracking number and the opportunity to see if your order has already been shipped out.

Tell ya mates:

The Textile folks are absolute snakes. DO NOT BUY from them. There are *plenty* of other great shirt companies out there, don’t waste your time with this “business.” Don’t take my word for it, check out the San Diego Better Business Bureau website (of which teextile is not a member, of course) and see how many complaints have been logged against them.

We have contacted them in order to get some answers, they haven’t replied but if we don’t hear any news soon we will write a post on them criticising their behaviour.

Thanks for sticking up for the little guy Buy Tees! I of course know you are one of the few t-shirt reviews blogs that doesn’t stuff your reviews with affiliate links and so you make nothing from writing about Teextile. Thanks for contacting them and looking forward to the post either way!

Looks like some really cool garb.

Thanks to Buy-Tees. Perhaps they’ll respond to you? One can only hope. At the end of the day $7 is not the end of the world- I just want to know that others know they’re throwing it down the drain.

Could be Ron, will wait a while and see how bad things get before I write a full blown post and slate these guys. They’ve written an email to me asking me not to, I have given them the benefit of the doubt for now, but if we get any more complaints or past complaints like yours aren’t sorted in the next few weeks let me know and I will do the damage.

Hi Dahammer, they’ve replied because they fear a negative post. Rather than completely ruin their business I thought I’d wait and see if you all get your refunds/shirts first!
