Anyone have to reject while you were there? I wonder how many prizes go unclaimed because of the taxes.

Extremely small margins and a shit ton of competition. Lots of capital frozen in inventory due to number of skus for styles and sizes. Lots of inventory burn due to it not being popular, even popular styles burn certain sizes.

It’s really a very hard business, especially one to jump into willy-nilly. I admire the idea and the want to help people down on their luck but a t-shirt business will be tough to manage. They’re basically wishing and hoping on hitting a half court shot and their brand catches attention immediately. Even then, once the media bump and viral marketing goes away you’re usually left with a bunch of capital locked up in orders and inventory.
