AZS, of course you don't see the need to be rude or upset by this. You are somewhat affiliated with Wizkids.
To me, andf apparently others, this kind of stuff along with Crimson Skies, Creepy Freaks, Shadowrun etc are the reasons the booster prices are going up a dollar. Same reason a game that has unrated tournament play would retire figures.
It's all about the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
I like some of their product, I don't like many of their decisions. If I chose to use sarcasm to express my dissent and dissatisfaction, that's my choice.

WWE National Qualifier Finals, June 2008, all four members of Four Points Gaming Club make the Top 8!
The reason the prices are going up is probably due to alot of things but also mainly inflation, this has been a market for them for 2 years and I am surprised it took them this long to up the ante a dollar...not a big deal,
And for the record
I think the stuff is cool and will probably get a hat and put my realmer id on it.....somehow.....
Help!! I am under attack by the culture of life!! Send Zombies!!!

I'll buy one of the shirts, and if it fades on the first wash like it has done in the past with all the other stuff ordered through cafepress, then I'll make a post about it.

Dude, do you not understand that it costs Wizkids not a single penny to make these shirts and items?
Cafe Express has a set price for each item and if Wizkids wants to make any profit off of each item, then they select what they want to sell them at.
Example:
Cafe Express, say, would make a t-shirt $15.
If Wizkids wants to make any money off of it, they need to charge more than that.
Sometimes, the profit off each item isn't much, but it's not costing Wizkids anything to do this.
As for the shirts fading, etc, I've bought two shirts off the site before and they're perfectly fine and even made of the more durable cotton shirts, not the thin cheap stuff.

Cafe Press is well known for making poorly crafted products. But then, it doesn't cost Wizkids a dime to have this stuff made; since it's only printed or produced when it's ordered.
I bought a golf shirt. You know, to support the team. So if I am the only guy at Wizard World East with one on, you will know who I am... "Hey, there is that one guy that bought the shirt!"
Is THIS really the latest reason to whine? Can it be that we are so starved for complainable material that Logo T-Shirts are a huge issue for people. If you like it buy it, if you don't like it, there is no pressure and it isn't taking away from your clix purchases. I DO however appreciate shin-goji letting us know that the quality may be questionable. I also appreciate that Draddog is willing to stand behind the product. I already ordered the shirt because I am a dork, and I order stuff, so I will let you know how the polo turns out. If the logo tears off after one wash, I PROMISE, I will let you know.

I was beginning to wonder myself. It's not like you're hurting Wizkids any by not buying it either...

Uhm.....
Define 'lucky'.....
Anyone remember those logo panties Chaos sold for Lady Death and the rest of their comics? I knew the gal who did the ordering for a chain of 5 stores, and they were only ordered by sad obese fanboys....
