Hello,
I haven't tried using this service myself but it looks promising. Try and give it a go and give us some feedback when you've made some deals with them

one company is famous : www.cafepress.com, but i'm not sure if they are based in the usa. You can even start your own online store with them.

hi yes i know them, but they dont drop-ship... i have been using artscafe for the past 3-4 months must say quality of service they provide is excellent, and as u design ur own products competition is very low. but there is really a strange trend on ebay, sometimes u get good lots of bids on ur items and sometimes u just crave for one bid.. can anyone suggest a good strategy.. auction/buy it now wat should be prefered with such customized products..

Looks very good for me.

I have actually emailed them an enquiry of my own - do they only do images or is text only possible.
If so, i will probably give them a try.

The free delivery option is quite slow, but for free you can't complain too much.

This is a very similar thing to what myself and a friend were looking for quite some time ago. Maybe we might look into it again.
approx £1.50 for a custom designed t-shirt and delivery is pretty darn good and a damn site cheaper than my local t-shirt printing business wanted per item.

And another plus thing - there should be no import & taxes to pay.

selling custom made t-shirts is all about timing

Time it so you are selling the "in thing" ( for example tv show Life on Mars) catch phrases from that show 8million people watched the last episode. Things like that........or even seven of the best for the Man U win against Roma!

You get my drift of the ready made printing business

the designs are ur own wheather it is an image or text .. u will just love the quality of service they give. all items are shipped out within 48hrs and i have a record delivery within 5 days to UK amazing or wat.. as i m new to this forum i dont really know if there r enough people dealing with them that y i started this thread so that we can go into detail about the many possible ways to bring the maximum output..

wat afraids me is risk of trademark violation as one of my listings got removed i designed chelsea fan t-shirt bit it was removed... so its a big question as wat to print and not to print..

any inputs.. are welcome

Don't forget - ebay is not the only way to sell t-shirts.

If you used the chelsea logo, then it is pretty obvious it is likely to be removed if caught out.

Now i know that they do text, thanks to you, i will probably give them a try.

How do i send them what text i want?
Do i just use, for example, paint shop pro, type the text and send it?
