everyone knows what I do for a living if not well look at my damn signature....

so with that out of the way
I get a call from a new customer monday says he needs shirts this friday

I say cool, how did he hear about us...

he has known about us for sometime, but never used us, but used our price online list to get lower rates from Victory records screen printing...
they had one of those we'll match any price quoted things

so I ask well why aren't you using them anymore ....

punch line of the story, they went out of business...

mr. big bucks hardocre records guy couldn't afford to compete with us....hmmm, (I could only wish)

they ran 3 full time shifts a day and usually charged twice as much as we did....funny thing is we are busier now then we have ever been...

so win one for the little guys... who care about their customers and don't try to rip them off by putting out shitty overpriced product,

now if only the rest of the label would fold...

Amazing.

Eh I currently use about three different screen printing companies.

Yours the most, Still Here Clothing (.net) and a local friend. I get different quotes all the time for different projects.

That is funny. Congrats Steve and amy the best news only get better for ya. Is the website up yet? I want to place an order. Also you do baby shirts yet? My son needs some cool threads.

Congrats Steve.

I've said a thousand times how impressed I was with your quality and service when I was in a pinch. One of the top merchandice companies, who do merch for very recognizable names, runs the Awake/Strong webstore. Yet when I need shirts, I have (and will use) Def-Star to print them. Then I send them off instead of using the merch company for orders. You have earned my respect and business and I refer any and all business I can to you.

so the customer got his shirts today and called to say what an amazing job we did getting the shirts there in time for their show, and we blew victory away in price and quality....
so there ya go, we win they lose
