Quirky Qwertee

     For my first product review, I will be posting the shirt I ordered from Qwertee.com! Each day, Qwertee posts one new T-shirt design mostly relating to nerd-culture for only $12.00! After 24-hours, that specific T-shirt design will go to the "Last Chance Tee" page, where you will have another 24-hours to buy it for the higher price of $14.00. However, after the shirt expires from the "Last Chance Tee" page, you won't be able to have a chance to get that print ever again (unless there is a special promotion, but they usually result in blind bags)!

     I've been watching Qwertee almost everyday for a design that I couldn't live without, and finally stumbled upon one! It was the "Dark Moon Rises" Sailor moon Tee. I loved the design so much, I ordered it right away! They accept credit, debit, or paypal. With my experience, any site that accepts paypal is usually a good one (and it's safe knowing that paypal will back you up if you ever get screwed over by an online seller). I selected my size- women's small (they do NOT have an Extra Small option) and selected the shipping method of $5.95 (Standard Delivery). They also had the option of Guaranteed Delivery for $7.50, which is insured against loss. I must admit, when I clicked on the Standard Delivery option, I was a bit worried for it stated, "Shipping time: 5-30 Working days after dispatch". 30 WORKING DAYS?! I went ahead with the order, expecting not to see it for a very, very long time.

     Boy, was I wrong! I received the shirt in a week and a half! Pretty fast considering I live in Orlando, Florida and it shipped from Ireland! It was shipped in a soft shipping envelope and came with a bag of Haribo gummies (which I had for dessert after my dinner that night)! I immediately looked at the shirt and the print was exactly how it was shown on the site. The ink of the screenprinting is thick not soft, but that's quite common in most graphic printed tees. It's also quite bold, so don't worry about receiving a cruddy print transfer here! It's 100% cotton and has been pre-shrunk. I didn't try it on right away, but waited until the anime convention where I was volunteering to do so.

     When I finally put it on to wear, the first thing I noticed was that the neck hole was small. It IS displayed as so on the site, but I didn't notice that it was a high-neck tee until I tried it on. It didn't take away my love for the shirt, I'm just not use to wearing high-neck tees (my boyfriend commented that it would look cuter as a v-neck, but I like it the way it is). Another thing I noticed about the shirt was that it was loose around the chest and waist but hugged my hips. To give you an idea, my measurements are 32( 34B if wearing a bra), 26 waist, 34 hips, and I'm 5'3. You can maybe notice how it hugs the hips in the picture below.

Overall, I would give this shirt and Qwertee.com  a 90% satisfaction rating! They shipped quickly, the quality of the shirt is great, and I recieved seven comments (both in and out of the convention) within one day! It's unique, fun and of course, Sailor Moon!

     Check out Qwertee.com here! http://www.qwertee.com/ Also if you sign up, you can vote for your favorite prints in hopes it will become a future Tee! I've already voted for several prints (mostly Monkey Island related)!

P.S. With any graphic-printed shirt, make sure you turn it inside out before washing to protect the print!

  2. Thank you for the review. I was about to order but I am not a huge fan of high-neck tees so I think I'll pass on that tee of the day. Fits you well though!

  4. Thank you for this post. The photos and description are really helpful to get a better sense of how the women's size fits.

  5. Yes, that’s the way I always wanted to come over such a wonderful platform where I could satisfy myself regarding my issues. I found answers of all most of my check list I prepared after having a lot of confusion. Great job.
