elegantlion Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Not looking to make a huge amount of money, just want to have an outlet for my ideas. If you've designed shirts, which company is easier to set up and get payments from? If you've bought t-shirts, which company has better service and pricing? Thanks.

Spryte Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 I have no experience designing or selling, but I have purchased from Cafe Press several times. Once we even had an issue with a shirt not being quite right, and the customer service was wonderful! I would purchase from them again. :) Keep us posted about your new shirts!

Impish Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 No idea about zazzle. My design progie was on my old tower, and I haven't been able to replace it yet. I've been w/cafepress for over 5 yrs now. They changed their structure, and cost shop owners a considerable chunk of change, imo. It used to be that you simply set your commission. You could add a flat $ amt, or % on top of what the cafepress price was. Then they changed it, so that if ppl found your items via their site search engine, it only showed up at 10% commission. Considering that's the most likely way for folks to find your stuff, you can see where owners lost $. I went from making a cpl hundred $ at Xmas time to about $60 b/c of the change.
