Re: Blocked bidders

I wish I would have seen that post about the three fraudsters from Malaysia you listed for Hattrick. Yes, 12hysteric81 picked up a free Levis Big E shirt off me recently. While most of my scammers come from Malaysia and Thailand, I have noticed something else over the years. In the United States, I ...

Re: Thailaysia

Another good point Max -the buyers with low feedback scores that never pay (especially from the two aforementioned countries). I do not understand why this happens so much, or what purpose it serves, if any. Because of the frequency, I believe there must be some angle. Does anyone have a theory? A ...

Re: Thailaysia

Thanks for your response. It was very insightful, and from my last set of auctions I will definitely have to lift the ban. I turned away over 20 potential bidders on just one item. ShipSurance sounds like the way to go, as well as the padded flat rate envelopes. Now I just have to decide whether to ...

Thailaysia

Just wondering if any sellers block shipping to Thailand and/or Malaysia? I doubt that I am the only one that has had problems over the years -from the perpetual "Where is my item" and "Item not received", feedback extortion, low DSR's because of shipping time and cost (issues beyond a sellers ...

International DSRs on eBay

Just wondering...has anyone checked out their International DSRs yet? I always ship within 24 hours of payment (ANYWHERE). And surprise, my international pals gave me low ratings, 0's, for shipping time. I do not understand how they can be so obtuse -between US shipping, customs, and international ...

Re: 1985 David Lee Roth DAVETV Mtv Shirt

I hope it works out for you! I have found that, sometimes, you just have to wait a little to get the best price -especially if you do not need the money immediately. You have something quite rare, so why settle for less?

Re: 1985 David Lee Roth DAVETV Mtv Shirt

If I found that shirt, I would not go less than $100! That may sound ridiculous, but the Malaysia crowd definitely likes vtg MTV! How many of those shirts exist in the world, really? Looks like it is in pretty decent shape!

Re: 70s or 80s?

By the way, I wasn't 100% sure it was 70s, even though that was my original belief. So, I listed it 80s.

Re: 70s or 80s?

Thanks! I listed it several days ago. I think my opener is low, but really cool and unique vintage tourist tees do not translate well on eBay. Here is the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270616348047&ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Re: 70s or 80s?

Thanks for all the information. I will check out that link. I thought Hanes and Champion were always two different companies, but maybe I am wrong. I am sure one of the other vintage sellers on this site could verify if they ever merged or not.

70s or 80s?

Hey everyone, I am about to list this really cool paper thin San Francisco Tee. I cannot figure out the date though. The tag is the unbranded 50/50 (reverse side just states the RN# and Made in U.S.A.;I think it is possibly 70s or earlier. Anybody have a guess? The birds on the shirt make it look ...

Re: TULTEX tags

Thanks CrazyB! And Will, it was a general question, but I dug up a recent find. Here it is. Dated 1988, but that may or may not be when the shirt was made. It could just refer to when the artist originally drew the picture. http://i787.photobucket.com/albums/yy158/tumblekids/EOA2010087-1.jpg http ...

TULTEX tags

Is there a resource that I missed about different Tultex tags and their respective era? I come across them often, sometimes t-shirts look vintage, but the Tultex tag suggests otherwise. Anybody an expert on this brand?

Which way a zipper zips

I have a few 80's Leather Jackets that definitely look like mens, but they zip up from the opposite side (left). Were mens jackets made that way, or are these jackets manly looking womens outerwear? Or possibly jackets for lefties? Anybody know? They were both made in Korea.

Re: VTG Tee Sellers and Sizes

If you list the actual (not stated) size, some folks will complain that you misrepresented the item. Only, because THEY failed to read the description. I understand what you are saying though.

It is a screen print.

Re: Weird Vasectomy Tee

I have heard varied opinions -from being an obscure band to having racial undertones. I was thinking it may be from a Vasectomy clinic, trying to convey that your no less of a man despite having an operation of that kind.

I have a questionable item. I have scoured this site and the internet and cannot confirm the date of a shirt. The questionable item is a Black Flag T-Shirt. I can feel the screen print and it is dated 1985 SST RECORDS below the first Black Flag bar. However, the tag leads me to believe it was not ...
