VAUXHALL CAVALIER MK1 COUPE t-shirt. OLD SKOOL. CLASSIC CAR. MODIFIED. RETRO.

Description: OLD SKOOL - VAUXHALL CAVALIER MK1 COUPE t-shirt Another Raggamuffin original. By request, the Cavalier mk1 coupe. Factory stock bodywork, 14" Revolution four spoke wheels, big stainless exhaust, Manta chin spoiler and lowered a good few inches 'cause it's what I do. lol Classic Cavalier coupe with a retro twist. Originally done as a yellow car but must admit I bottled it before listing and made it red. lol Yellow version will be available upon request if like me you have exceptional taste in colours. Just add a message at purchase or you get the red version. Technical - This design is dye sublimation printed in full colour onto a white, 100% polyester, Xpres brand t-shirt. Sublimation prints are achieved at very high temperatures (200 - 205ºc) and chemically change the colour of the fabric via gas injection of the dye inks. There is no 'feel' to the printed image like there is with screen printing or polymer transfer prints. The garments are printed using the industry's leading ink 'Subli Sharp' which is manufactured in England under licence from InkTec of America, so no cheap and nasty Chinese inks here. These prints will not fade, crack or deteriorate and are permanently dyed into the garment. A really nice shirt and a top quality print. Garments - All shirts are now Xpres brand sublimation garments. The material is constructed to give a cotton like feel but is 100% polyester and is breathable, so no sweaty pits in these bad boys. Your shirt is made from 100% recycled materials (go on, hug a tree, shout about it to a vegan and burn more petrol with a clear conscience. lol). These garments are considerably thicker than the Gildan's I previously sold and feature a removable size label at the neck (nice feature if labels bug you). They are a 'premium quality' shirt costing twice as much for me to buy in the blank garments, hence my price going up from £10.99 to £12.50. I'm making nothing at all extra out of this, in fact I'm losing around 80p per shirt off my already tight margins. Ebay are making more from final value fees though, which must be nice for them. lol Better quality shirts have been requested, better quality shirts are now being produced, hopefully it pays off with increased orders. No rip off, no profiteering, just a better product all round. It's really that simple. Boring legal bit - These designs are my copyright and intellectual property, including the branding. I produce them from scratch with about 8 hours design work going into each one. If you see them elsewhere the design has been 'lifted' illegally and is being used without my permission. I sell exclusively on ebay. Please don't buy them from elsewhere if you see them for sale. You will in all likelihood receive a really poor second generation copy of my work, missing loads of detail, on a sub-standard cheap 'seconds' rated shirt laden with flaws and printed by someone who doesn't care in the slightest, using inks made from who knows what? You have been warned. To be blunt it'll be rubbish compared to my shirts. lol The previous version of this design has been ripped off by a Chinese company who produce absolutely dreadful shirts and take 60 days to deliver to the UK. If you bought one, well, can't say I didn't warn you. lol Sizing and returns - Please note the size chart in the photos above. The chart is accurate to within a few millimetres (I've checked it against numerous shirts at random) and should be used before purchasing any garment. Your shirt will be hand printed to order and is therefor exempt from the vast majority of returns rules (full details regarding handmade to order items are available on yougov.co.uk). I will of course exchange items but a second post fee will apply where you've purchased the wrong size in error, plus an additional £4 restocking fee as I bin all returns off to charities abroad (nice guy, told you. lol). You try it on, it isn't 'new' anymore, so I don't pass it on to anyone else. New means new, not tried on once by someone else. Please, just use the size chart. Post cost is higher than my profit margin on a shirt so the arithmetic is quite simple. My only alternative would be to put the price of every shirt up to cover losses which isn't fair on people who do use the size chart. It takes seconds to measure your favourite shirt before ordering. Save yourself two additional post fees, a restock fee and being put on the Ragga naughty step. It's a cold and miserable place with nothing to eat. lol Post - All UK garments are posted 'Royal Mail 1st class signed for', to ensure a quick, guaranteed delivery. Overseas orders will be sent by 'Royal Mail Standard Air Mail - (5 - 7 days delivery)'. A tracked and signed for option is available by request on international orders but it is ridiculously expensive, just ask if you require this added peace of mind. I post at cost price, no add ons. If you ever pay more than cost for any reason I refund the difference via paypal. Again, no rip offs so please bear this in mind when leaving feedback. 5 stars thanks. lol Important - If your country is not listed as a destination I sell to, it's purely because too many items go missing in your country's post and it has been blacklisted by me. It's not because I don't like your country or anyone living in it. I will not reconsider posting to countries outwith those I have listed as sales destinations. Ebay cover most of the countries I don't post to with their Global Shipping Program. They can obviously afford the losses. Sorry if your country is on my blacklist but it's down to your postal service losing numerous items I've sent in the past, nothing else. Likewise if you're a naughty person who has put USA or anywhere else as your location when you don't live there but expect me to then send the item to Russia (for instance), you'll find yourself reported instantly to ebay. Popular Questions - Bear with me on this. Saves both of us loads of time in the long run. lol Can I produce other colours of shirt? - No, sorry. Sublimation printing to a photographic standard can only be achieved on white shirts. Can I produce cotton shirts? - No. Sublimation ink doesn't adhere to cotton. It would wash out in the first wash and stain all the other clothes in your washing machine. I have enough hassles to deal with daily without every wife in the land taking a contract out on me. Men never check relevant stuff like this and just bung clothes in the wash without a thought (I'm banned from going within 10 feet of our washing machine for similar crimes), so it's 100% polyester garments only for the sake of everyone, because I care. lol Can I produce one off changes to designs? - Of course I will but can you afford it? lol I will consider doing minor alterations to designs based on the time they take to do and how busy I am when you ask but if you're expecting just about every detail on the design changed ask yourself this first, are you willing to pay for however many hours of labour it takes me at say £20 an hour plus £12.50 for a shirt? No, thought not. My computer doesn't 'do it all for me', it takes hours of manual labour altering these designs. They're not 'cartoons' with simple colour layers after all. Keep your expectations reasonable, play nice and we'll get on just fine. lol Will I do such and such model? - Ask away, I'm all ears. If it's viable to do any car and I think there's even a small market for it I'll give it a go. I'm a petrolhead first and foremost. I do have my limits though, so if your car is one of three in the world, well that's much smaller than a small market and I think you know the answer unless the other two owners want an identical shirt each and agree to split the design costs with you. lol I'll tackle pretty much anything I don't lose time on for no return. Do you produce standard classic car designs? - Not really. I do old skool retros, hence they are by nature modified. Plenty of other people do bog stock classic car shirts which is probably a very lucrative business for them but it would frankly bore me to death producing likewise and I'm not that motivated by money or pretentions that this is in any way a viable business which is 'going somewhere', weird huh? It's a hobby that makes me a few quid now and then. And I mean a few quid. lol Some cars however do deserve the standard look as they are pretty much impossible to make look better. I'm negotiable on the matter ..... sometimes .... depending on mood, can't say fairer than that. No harm in asking plus I'm really polite and apologetic when I say no. Everyone's a winner. lol Will you produce a t-shirt design with a modern car on it? - No. I don't like most of them if I'm being honest. I'm quite old and grumpy at the best of times so I'm not looking at some brand new euro box for 8 hours, hating every moment of it and trying in vain to make it look better. My family have to live with the aftermath when I get tetchy and I quite like them most of the time. Anyway, the manufacturer should have done that before releasing it's ugly ass and ruining my view when I go outside. Old Skool classics only, at least 20 years old. Do I combine post? - Yes I do. Multiple orders of any single design discount automatically via my ebay settings. Multiple orders of different designs don't, so I refund any excess post you've paid via paypal with a nice wee message attached. I know, I'm a hell of a nice guy, honest, decent, etc. I value my trading partners and treat everyone the way I'd like to be treated myself because my parents brought me up right. Someone needs to set an example, may as well be me. lol There's no such thing as free postage by the way (behave yourselves ebay, that one really bugs me). My postage policy is transparent so you can see exactly what it has cost you. Everyone should try this, instead of telling fairy tales about free stuff. If the post cost isn't listed separately it could be anything at all, including extortionate. Anything but free that is. lol
