(You might not get what you see) I am not into putting down other tie-dyers, but there are some things people should know when purchasing a tie-dye. First, each tie-dye is unique, and tie-dyers have difficulty standardizing products. People like getting a unique product, but there are also pitfalls. Even when I do many pieces of the same pattern and color combination there are variations from piece to piece, and I like some of them better than others. This creates a gradation of quality at least as my eyes see it. The problem comes in when you look at a photo of a tie-dye on a tie-dye site, because you don't know if the piece was the best of 10 or the best of 200. Essentially, the shirt you get may not look like the image you saw on the site. My tie-dyes always look better than the photos, and I also offer a 100% satisfaction guarantee and take back all returns. I've had almost no returns do to quality. I also started my Tie-dye Bazaar where I sell individual pieces. And I will soon be opening my Tapestry Gallery which will be all individual pieces. The tapestries are our real art product, and I don't want to limit myself to standardized patterns. I want to try a lot of different variations and sell them all individually. This will be more satisfying for me and more interesting for customers. My next post is going to be Buyer Be Ware--Disintegrating Tie-dye Garments... |
