Sheesh! Why is Cafepress.com so expensive?

They do have the cutest sayings on maternity shirts and onesies but $30 for just a cotton t-shirt? No thank you! I'm going to search Ebay now...

Isn't it sad?  They have some awesome WoW mom shirts too, even though I don't play anymore I would still think they were hilarious.  /pout

I agree and they never have a decent sale!

Have you tried customizedworld.com?  They always have a sale of some sort going on.  That's where I got my bridal shirts from.

I had a cafepress store for about a year.  The reason the items are so expensive is because the designer chooses the price.  They want to make a profit.

So if you took 3 days designing a shirt, your store costs $25 a month, and you want to make some money... of course you are going to make the shirt up to compensate for your time and to help pay your membership bill.  Most people only make 1-2 sales a month IF they are lucky.

good luck with Ebay. everything I've seen on there is too expensive too. you could try printing out your own funny sayings and using transfer paper that irons on

You know I have contemplated just making my own, seems easy enough, right?

Madame, 1-2 sales a month? Yikes! Well then I guess that makes sense.

And yeah, I had no luck with Ebay, drats! Looks like I'm making a trip to Hobby Lobby this week...
