Why Did My Items Ship Separately?

In order to offer over 10,000 officially licensed t-shirts, 80sTees.com has built a complex business.  We buy our tees from over 12 different suppliers of officially licensed entertainment merchandise, and we have our own unique designs based off of our direct licensing relationships.

Most of the tees we sell are printed only after we have the order.  Since we carry so many styles and sizes, it would cost us over $500,000 to maintain stock of just 1 of every item/size we offer for sale, and that's just 1 unit of each!

So, if you order 3 shirts there is a chance you will receive 3 separate shipments that ship on different days and in many cases via different carriers. That is because our suppliers each have their own queue of orders to print.  Some of our vendors carry stock in the most popular sizes (as do we in our own warehouse) so there are items that ship within 1 to 2 days.  Other times our printers have a backlog so it may take 2 to 3 weeks for them to produce the item.  

It can be helpful to think of us as a retail marketplace that aggregates officially licensed t-shirts more than a brand of t-shirts.
