Ok, so...
Yesterday I received the Keith tees from my printer. Which means... yes, I had mockups in my store... Unfortunately it was unavoidable since the tees didn’t make it before the first of the month, but in any case, I didn’t anticipate this being a problem since my printer does excellent work.
Unfortunately, these weren’t quite up to par. (See the pics below)
Now I’m not here to talk bad about my printer, and if you don’t already know who does my tees, I’m not going to tell you because the purpose of this post is not to bring down anyone’s reputation. After all, he promptly offered to reprint all the bad ones (roughly 70 pieces), and as I said prior, I’m always happy with the printing of my tees, and this was a first.
The real purpose of this post is to get rid of these things. My first thought was to Goodwill them, but I figured it’d be nice to offer them to the folks that have supported LF in the past and might be willing to grab some wonky tees for cheap.
On my blog last night I made a post that I’d send them to anyone willing to pay shipping ($3 domestic, $7 international), and was able to get rid of a bunch that way, but it’s turned out that the effort in coordinating it all has been a real hassle, so unfortunately I’m raising it just a bit so that I’m not losing money in time. It’ll be $5 domestic and $9 international, and that will include shipping.
So if anyone here would like some sub-par Keith tees, post here with your size and color preference. First come, first serve.
Here’s what I have left to get rid of:
UPDATE:
Guys:
Small (black)
Large (black)
2XL (black)
3XL (black)
Girls:
Small (black, purple)
Medium (black)
So if you see something you want, post here first to claim it, and when I give you the go-ahead, just paypal me at gameyy(at)lintyfresh.com.
As for those of you who already ordered this tee, you should’ve gotten an email by now explaining this situation. Fortunately I had enough good tees to fulfill these orders, but if you get them and decide they aren’t up to snuff, you can contact me and we’ll work to resolve it quickly, one way or another.
In the meantime, I’ve deactivated this shirt from Linty Fresh until I get the reprints in. I apologize to those of you who were hoping on getting them sooner, but if you’d rather not settle on a misprint, I’ll have them back in the shop for September’s lineup.

Go Ape Shirts said 3 months ago
i missed out on the mediums!
Joe said 3 months ago
If anything, the prompt handling of the mistake by your printer should enhance their reputation! The way a company handles their mistakes is just as important, if not more important, than what they do when things run smoothly (in my opinion). Offering to reprint all the bad ones is the 100% correct response.
heavyprints said 3 months ago
2XL, 1 black 1 purple, if you got 'em.
gameyy said 3 months ago
Agreed, and a side benefit is all these people getting stuff on the cheap. Looks like I won’t be going to Goodwill after all! (Actually, I feel sort of bad about that...)
Thanks so much for all the orders folks! Typically I send out shipping confirmation personally on each order, but with things being so scattered with this batch, it may not happen. In any case, rest assured that your packages will ship tomorrow day or night and that you’ll have them as soon as I can get them to you.
This has been a bit of a nightmare in terms of sales for my site, but it’s great to know the support is there even when I’m not at the top of my game.
XOXO from LF!
Oh, and here’s what my office looks like right now:
gameyy said 3 months ago
Got em in black, but no purples.
Cole said 3 months ago
for the record- those of you who dont know already, the order came into jimmy and we were really crunched with orders and i have only worked with discharge once before (heartcore vs shantz shirts and everything came out great) unfortunately after a while the discharge ink lost potency while i was printing these and being the only one out in the barn i didnt catch the mistake till it was too late. i have worked with discharge since this and i have a solid grasp on it now.
Jimmy prides his job and business on being perfect everytime, and puts his trust in me to do the same. unfortunatly my mistake was more than a tiny one and steps were taken to make it right and to ensure it wont happen again. i hope this doesnt effect any future orders with jimmy.
my apologies go out to Jimmy and Eric for the quality of those prints.
at least you guys get some sweet five dollar AA shirts out of the deal.
Robby-brightglasses said 3 months ago
Almost all sold ?
70 shirts in 4 hours wow buddy
gameyy said 3 months ago
Cole,
I really appreciate you coming out and saying all that. I wasn’t about to point any fingers at anyone, and didn’t hold it against you once Jimmy explained that you hadn’t worked a lot with discharge before the Keith tees.
I respect you a ton for owning up to this though, and look forward to working with you in the future.
gameyy said 3 months ago
Not quite! I actually announced this last night on Linty Fresh’s Blog once I’d figured out what to do about it, so it’s been about 24 hours. Still, it’s been one of the busiest days here, but unfortunately only in terms of the volume of shirts moved, not in profits.
Simply Complicated said 3 months ago
wow man, that is very respectful I will totally be printing with you guys from now on
alexgoldstein said 3 months ago
Money sent. Stoked to get this tee!

ironyboy said 3 months ago
A long shot, but - any guys large black left?
chalk said 3 months ago
this is all quite interesting for us 'wanabees' who are far behind Linty and wonder about size of stock and stuff
*thinks* "hmmmm he ordered 70, and does 2XL and 3XL, very interesting"
*rubs chin and skulks behind cape in the corner*
edgillustrator said 3 months ago
any girls medium still?
Time Without the E said 3 months ago
so basically this kinda turned out sweet for gameyy
it blows overall but look at it this way.
if you sold 70 at 5 bucks a pop thats 350 bucks.
its enough to make another small run of tees with profits around 100 bucks maybe.
look at it this way
you got a TON of advertising done this way! 70 shirts out there is a good amount especially with peoples mouths around emptees ( Beth ez etc.) i think it’ll do a great amount for LF and we are all excited for yeah!
LuckyStripes said 3 months ago
Gameyy - Was I able to get my Guy’s M in time? Thanks so much man, it must be crazy in that office right now!
Pearls To Pigs said 3 months ago
