Also know as Cafepress.
Not as good as it could be.
'Unshakable reputation for sending out mediocre merchandise to its faithful customers.'
'Enfuriate clientale even more as they receive the same defective article over and over again. This practice is particularly unnerving to people that live overseas and can't afford the long distance phone calls to their service department, higher than normal shipping fees and duty fees.'
'Lack of quality control.'
'They managed to improve the printing process slightly but it was too little too late and hundreds of costumers left Cafepress to join the growing competition.'
Cafepress is a perfect example of a good idea poorly executed and poorly managed, it has quickly acquired an unshakable reputation for sending out mediocre merchandise to its faithful customers. In the beginning Cafepress became popular by allowing the "average joe" to sell t-shirts online, however they failed to implement a good system of quality control and the end results were disastrous. They offer a 30-day money back guarantee which infuriates the clientele even more as they receive the same defective article over and over again. This practice is particularly unnerving to people that live overseas and can't afford the long distance phone calls to their service department, higher than normal shipping fees and duty fees.
By recently purchasing a series of very expensive printers, they made a failed attempt to print on dark t-shirts, Cafepress was hoping to crush the growing competition but they were defeated again by their lack of quality control. Sadly, the results were very disappointing, whites turned out grey and colors appeared dark and muddy, still they charged a hefty extra fee for this service. After constantly refining the process, they managed to improve the printing process slightly but it was too little too late and hundreds of costumers left Cafepress to join the growing competition.
It has been suggested that Cafepress management is concentrated more in going public than in making good quality products, and there is no evidence pointing to them improving their quality in the near future, quite to the contrary, they seem to have no interest in doing so. According to Alexa, their website has been losing a considerable amount of traffic over the span of at least the last eight months.
