Shirt.Woot

Can someone confirm these are NOT fitted tees for ladies? I have a small waist and standard tees don't look good on me. I have never purchased from shirt.woot before, but I really like this shirt.

So... is this a MockingHip?

Now the question is:
I own District 14 (which amuses me terribly). Is my love for HHH great enough to splash down overnight shipping?.

I have the same dilemma. Hadn't thought about the shipping option until I read the comments now I'm torn. I do have a coupon so that helps, but that was helping me decide to buy the shirt in the first place. I am not a tshirt wearer, but woot is breaking me down!!

Or, you can look at it as being prepared for the inevitable movie sequel!

Ok you got me! Second viewing and sequel. I'm in for overnight

Great design! I suppose making it like a small pin off-centered on the shirt would have made the design too small.

No no, it's clearly a Hippojay.

Did you say Hippogriff?

Buckbeak????

I came to point out the SnorgTee version of the same shirt.

I have seen less similar shirts rejected for being similar, so I think it's odd Woot would choose to print this one.

Also, I love Hunger Games, but this is just too... goofy. And I don't particularly want to walk around with a hippo on my shirt.

Shouldn't overnight get it here Friday instead of Monday? It's Thursday today isn't it? Is woot land on a different calendar? I really wanted to get this to wear to the theater on Saturday. Not sure if I will get it if it's not going to be here till Monday.

As they explained early in the thread, the paperwork was signed off on this 2 weeks ago and the original concept was submitted by APSketches (AKA DJTweekNYC) about a month ago. It's just a coincidence that they were posted days of each other.

You know what, that's a great question. I mailed Customer Service to clarify for us.

For those wondering about overnight shipping, see this quote from the FAQ page:
"If you’re wealthy and impatient, we’ll ship your order FedEx overnight for our normal $5 shipping cost. Orders in by noon will be shipped that day. Orders placed after noon will be shipped the next business day."

So, if you ordered yours before noon CST, you should get it tomorrow. At least, that's what I'm reading.

For more information, go here: Shirt.Woot! FAQ

edit: emphasis is mine.

The word on overnight shipping:
"They have until Noon CST Thursday (Today) to order Overnight and receive it tomorrow. Otherwise it won't get shipped out until tomorrow and they'll get their overnight order Monday."

Considering it's already noon Pacific time... yeah. So you morning overnighters are good for the weekend, it looks like.

This is also handy info to know for Thursday shirts.

edit: totally beaten to the punch with the FAQ, no less ;) BUT we should probably add the CST part to the FAQ, so there is that.

That's a huge achievement, congrats! Great shirt, too.

WM fits about the same but is longer (my daughter complained about the length)

Thanks for the clarification. I'm so bummed I didn't see this till after the cutoff date. I've learned my lesson to check the site first thing in the morning! I will probably still have to get one to wear to the second or third or possibly fourth time I go see the movie though!

Is this YOUR design? Unfortunately this is very suspiciously identical to the one that was worn during the premiere. The artist was filmed and photographed with it and is now seeing her design on here and understandably not happy about it. She submitted the design to a few sites as well, weeks ago...this sounds like a potential conflict. I hear Woot has also been contacted about this.

Excellent! (And don't forget to check the sizing chart!)

Congrats guys

Awesome design, guys! The Hunger Games is one of my favorite series of books and I really can't wait for the movie to come out this weekend!

This needs to be in my closet... by two of my fav artists too. Dangit. Woot stop taking my money!

May the tilt of the playing surface be ever in your favor.

Although I believe you, and your fact checking abilities, I'm curious why it takes until Monday? Mail moves on Saturdays as well...

I know people are going to be commenting about this shirt when I wear it

Ok supported the local guy ad bought the shirt for my daughters Easter Basket

definitely wearing this to the movie

I went to go "like" this comment and almost accidentally tattled on it! Thanks Nate!

Not FedEx...unless woot wants to pay extra for Saturday shipping. I'm guessing they don't.

Kind of unfortunate that none of the comments that linked to the original snorgtees design was marked as a quality post. http://www.snorgtees.com/t-shirts/hungry-hungry-games

I understand not wanting to send business to a competitor, but this one is a better looking shirt. Have some more confidence in your product, shirt.woot!

I hope this is a true cut-off and not "around Noon ships today". My order was complete at 9:11 AZ time (which is 11:11 CST) and I still haven't gotten confirmation that it shipped.

Thanks for my first woot!

Welcome to the wonderful world of woot. Shirt.woot has a lot to offer. Take off your jacket and stay a while. You should make your way to the reckoning, you just might find something in your size.

I too go looking for the vote up or like button forgetting that I am not on deals.woot or facebook. Might have to dig out our Hungry Humgry Hippos game from the basement now. Anyone up for a game?

I'm down for a game so long as its the original version with the marbles and not the cheap-o version with the pastic balls. Marbles alllll the way!

And -that- is what sold me.

They (unfortunately) are not fitted, and like all American Apparel shirts, are a bit too short for me.
