i emailed the kid on nov 1 and he said to sit tight and that the shirt was on the way. nov 10th i emailed him again asking for a refund and he said "im not refunding you for a shirt thats in the mail". here we are 16 days later and i still have no shirt. i ended up calling paypal and they set up a claim for me and got me my money back. im just mad the fuckin kid flat out lied that he sent it, and then made up some bs excuse about recent hardships. yea ok, recent hardships right when you are supposidly mailing everyones shirts.

Might have to call up Paypal. I filed a claim and they said it was too late. Sucks. I really did give the kid the benefit of the doubt, so shame on me.

Surprise, surprise, got a message from Shane... Dont know what to believe tho...:
"Marc, Sorry for not replying. Your message went into the "other" inbox, and I never look in here. It was intentional. I'm also sorry about the fact that you haven't received your shirt yet. I'm also sorry that everything got so fucked up. Here's the dirt on what happened.. When I printed these shirts, I had it all budgeted out based the quote I had gotten from the print shop (the same shop I used for my successful run of Type O Negative shirts), and the price I figured it would cost to pack and mail each item based on previous prices I had been charged for mailing stuff both domestically and internationally. Based on the quotes from the print shop, I knew how much profit there would be on each item as it came in. Not a lot on each- but it ads up. So as the money came in, I began spending what I was supposed to be making. After preorders closed I sorted them all and hit up the printshop to do the shirts.. Two weeks later, the shirts are finished and the guy is charging me a higher amount than what he had originally told me. High enough to already put me at a deficit on these shirts, especially since basically all of the overhead was already gone. I figured at this point I was already too far in to go back, so I was gonna mail the shirts and ways and just take the extra cost as a lump. I went to the post office to grab customs labels, and find out exactly how much it was going to cost everything. Turns out postage prices had also risen since the last time I had mailed any orders. Each domestic package was roughly $1-$3 more expensive than I had originally thought it was going to be, and some international packages were $5-$10 more expensive than I thought it was going to be. I had roughly 50-60 packages to mail - and when you starting adding those additional shipping costs to each package, it adds up enormously. At this point, I started to realize I was fucked. This is where I started making excuses just to get people to stop messaging me while I tried to figure how I was going to come up with the extra couple hundred it was gonna cost me to get it all in the mail. Then my son was born - and everything got fucked beyond return. I ended up spending all the money I had left for postage on stuff for my son, along with almost every cent I had from my paycheques at work. All my money was stuck going to other places and I couldn't get it together back together. I was making minimum wage, and I couldn't come up with the cash. Plain and simple. I was fucked. So the bottom line is that I lost the money for the shirts and dug myself into a really deep hole. I feel like shit about it. This is never ever what I intended to have happen.. but it did. I don't have any money to do a refund. I'm on parental leave from work, and I don't have any substantial cash coming in. Sure, I could probably refund a few people individually, but what about everyone else who is still waiting? So basically, I'm just going to keep waiting it out until I can get a solid lump of cash at my disposal. This is why I am looking forward to getting tax return money. It should be enough to lift the weight off my shoulders, and get me into a postion where I can drop a few hundred mailing out all the packages. I'm sorry that it has been months. But I'm going to make it right when I can. -"
