Shirt.Woot

Surprisingly mine came yesterday 7/28. even though the est. delivery date was 8/1. I ordered large and normally wear large, sometimes medium. It does run small, because it fit more like a medium before washing. Might have to order XL next time, something I've never done.

My god, smartpost is slow.

Just got mine in the mail...its got a dime-sized frayed hole on the back of it!!! Lets see if woot will replace.

Yeah! I ordered mine Wednesday and got it today. That was definitely faster than the Screaming woot monkey shirt.

Speaking of...while my screaming Woot monkey shirt was a nice but somewhat snug small, my woot launch medium is a bit large on me. I will need to wash it and hope for some shrinkage, otherwise it's going to look like I borrowed the shirt from a bigger friend. I am guessing they were not made by the same company which might explain the "huge" jump in dimensions from the small to the medium.

Both my wife and I purchased a Shirt.Woot Launch Tee. As an ex clothing buyer I can say this was a very low quality t-shirt. The cotton used is very thin. The neck was also very small for the sizes we purchased. It also fit very snug, again for the sizes we purchased.

Sorry Woot. I have been very happy with my other purchases but this one was very disappointing.

However, if you intended us to frame these instead of wearing them in honor of this being the first Woot shirt then mission accomplished!

Smartpost just is not very Smart. Still waiting on the launch T from the woot-off.....................

Liked Texas so much it went home again and forgot to pick up cheese in WI and went back there again as well. There is no way that with shipping and package handlers that this means of shipping is cost effective. Lindsy Lohan can drive straighter than this!
I wonder if the t-shirt envelope will have different State stickers for every vacation spot it's been to? Heck, that's worth more than the shirt!

I hope mine is actually long sleeve and Wool, cause by the time it gets here, I'll need it to be a sweater, not a t-shirt.......

I think yours came back to get mine... Mine didn't get to the Dallas sortation center until the evening of the 24th, but once yours leaves Dallas (again) they're on the same truck. Sorry for the hold up. :/

Got mine today. Six days by smartpost. Not bad for free.

I was pleased to receive my "Launch" tee today, but I was horrified to find a "Worst Unlicensed Merchandise Ever" shirt in the bag! I already bought that shirt (three of them, actually) and had them delivered next day for the additional fee. I would really like to get this straightened out. I am suicidal.

I got my shirt today, thanks shirt.woot! It only took 8 days (6 business days).

Finally arrived today, a day after the estimated delivery date.

But my launch shirt has a potential product safety issue. The image is not quite printed straight up and down; it's a little rotated, making the rocket ship dangerously off course.

Got mine too... but it wasn't the right shirt; was that lame unlicensed shirt. Good start to shirt.woot...

to confirm a few reports, there were some wires crossed in at least one days launch design batch -- so far half dozen reports. please keep your launch shirts as souvenirs of the glitch and email service for the fix. our apologies for the (relatively) small hiccup.

If you see my shirt washing the trucks, could you tell it that it's time to come home for dinner? Grove city is usually pretty fast but it's just sitting there playing Wii or something?

I live in Cincinnati. My shirt was at the sortation center in Grove City OH (about 50 miles away) on July 26th. Unfortunately, it got sorted on to the sortation center in New Berlin WI and from there to the sortation center in Charlotte NC. Maybe SmartPost charges Woot by the mile...

I still wish I could have gotten one of these. Stinking server crashes and I got hosed :-(

Same happened to me.

scored 6 launch shirts....

Had the same problem, ordered launch shirt, got some unlicensed merchandise.
Sent an email to service@woot.com
So we shall see.

Although the logo is very cool (and actually a good quality) the shirt itself SUCKS!

If this is an indication of the quality of t-shirts that are available here, I won't be buying anymore.....I CAN ALMOST SEE THROUGH THE SHIRT!!!!

I have had shirts made on many occasions for LAN parties, get-togethers, special events in college, etc....and I would be ashamed to use this quality of T.

/edit: Actually, these would work great for a wet t-shirt contest.....

Yup, the shirt is cool as a momento, but not for wearing. The cloth is ULTRA thin and I am worried my six-pack and pecs are going to rip right through it the second I flex.


OK, my beer barrel belly. Sheesh. Can't lie to any of you, can I?


I will wait to see if the other shirts are of higher quality or I will have to pass on future offerings.

I assume this means that it was supposedly delivered to ME, and not another sort facility? It appears the mailman stole my shirt. Who should I talk to about this? USPS? FedEx?

sent e-mail to service@woot.com, we'll see what happens.

Mine arrived today, and is off center also. the WOOT rocket is centered, but the logo is off to the left.

See the shirt pictured above and you see a nice center printed logo.
My shirt, OTOH has the logo printed *very offcenter* to my right side with the word LAUNCH almost in the middle over my breastbone.,
I hadda look at the above pic to see I got a 'unique' one. (sorta makes it more special.)

I'll treasue this mis-print. I guess. But I'll still wear it. I guess. (sorta makes it more special.)
After-All I didn't print it. Doh. Unless W00T! wants to send another. 2XL, please.

please email service@woot.com for correction here as well. our in-house production team is adding some additional quality control measures.

I had the same thing, I called "Smart Post" I was told my shirt is actually at my local post office, not at my home. So I am printing out my receipt and driving over to pick it up.

Hooray!

My $10 launch shirt came in the mail this week!

My neighbor thinks it's cool , too!

SCORE!!!

Poser.

That sucks... that's the only reason I bought mine! No l33t for me...

Is the "Launch" symbol all that is on this shirt?

I'm not sure where they supposedly attempted a delivery to, but I live in an apartment buidling with a doorman 24/7. So theres no way that no-one was home to accept this.

Woot may have just gotten in over it's head with this smartpost stuff. Too bad that if they go back to the old shipping method, I highly doubt it would remain free shipping.

Nuts - the EXACT same thing happened to me too.... except the part about having already ordred that 'worst' shirt. I just want the dang Launch Tee!

I emailed service and they responded quickly saying they will send out the correct shirt in a few days... here's hopin'!

Finally got mine today, after a long cross-country DumbPost journey. Really like the t-shirt!

you still can, but it'll cost you $15 instead of $10.

Got mine yesterday and wore it to work.
