Defective Merch

PJ5a1

this past weekend I attended wrigley 1. After waiting three hours on day and another two hours day two I was finally able to buy the t shirts and posters I wanted. I waited 5 total hours to get what I wanted which I already think is ridiculous.  After buying three t shirts I get home to see that each one is defective. I bought the kids shirt for my son and the design is off centered that it’s visibly noticeable, I bought the baseball player on fire t shirt which the tour dates on the back is off centered and I bought the set list t shirt where the setlist design is off centered. 

If people are going to wait hours upon hours and spend their money ($230) the least we can expect is that there’s quality control.

I just realized this about the kid’s shirt I bought for my son.

I bought 2, the Chicago flag with all the Chicago dates and the 4 eyed bull. Noticed today that the printing on the Chicago flag shirt has some spotty areas where the ink didn’t set into the shirt. Hopefully that doesn’t worsen when washed. I wash my shirts inside out and hang dry to prolong the image, but still...that sucks after long waits and dropping $35 on a shirt that cost less than $10 to make.

2016, bought a shirt and when they handed it to me, it was damp but didn’t think much about it. It was after night 1 and I wanted to get back to the hotel. Next day when I had sufficient lighting, I saw there were blue stains where the shirt was damp. Luckily they let me swap it out when I went back, but c’mon! I chalked it up to low lighting in the tent at night.

This is sad but true. I am easily in the double digits on concert shirts from PJ and I would say over half of them are a bit wonky. Whether it’s off center or askew images or odd hem lines. 
For what we are paying it’s really unfortunate that it seems most of the shirts wouldn’t pass a QC inspection st a retail store. 

I have to say that the shirts shipped from 10c have been of better fit and quality...where surely they have better controls. 

Not sure on a solution. $25 was the price at Foo Fighters show which seems a little more fair. I guess I will have to have the attendant bring me 5 of the same shirt and really look them over more carefully.
