Q: What
if I buy a shirt and it doesn’t fit?
A:
Send it back. As long as you haven’t gotten it
all sweaty or spilled a meatball sandwich on it, Auntie Fashions
will give you a refund or do an exchange, whatever makes you happy.
Q:
I’m afraid to give my credit card information
over the Internet. What are my other options?
A: Auntie Fashions utilizes Secure Socket Layer encryption,
which scrambles your credit card information so that it is unrecognizable
to potential hackers. For more information on SSL click here. However, if you’re still worried, just use
our printable
order form and snail mail it to us. We accept personal checks,
cashier checks, and money orders in addition to Visa and MasterCard.
DO NOT SEND CASH. Send all snail mail to:
Auntie Fashions, Inc.
PO Box 257253
Chicago, IL 60625
You can also fax your order to us at (773) 202-1537. If
you are paying with a personal check please bear with us, as these
orders will be held until your check clears our bank (usually around
three weeks).
Q. I have an idea for a design and would like to sell it
to Auntie Fashions. How do I go about this?
A. Auntie Fashions does not accept
submissions from outside sources.
Q. I want to send Auntie Fashions shirts as a gift. Can
you take care of this for me?
A.
Absolutely! Auntie Fashions shirts make wonderful gifts. Just
let us know the contact information of the lucky recipient and
we will take care of the rest. Also, please provide us with what
you’d like to say to the recipient by sending a separate
email. If you would like to send shirts to multiple locations,
it will be less confusing for everyone if you fill out separate
orders for each.
Q.
If I get on your mailing list, you’re not going
to sell my name to other companies or provide info to John Ashcroft
are you?
A. Absolutely not! Although we do send out a mass notice
to our mailing list when we release a new design (usually 3 or
4 times a year), we will NEVER sell or share our mailing list with
ANY organization. If you find yourself on our list and do not want
to receive further emails, simply tell us to remove you and we
will, no questions asked.
Q.
You’re not in any way affiliated with PayPal are
you?
A.
Again, absolutely not! PayPal (as many of you know) is run by
a guy who is only too happy to provide purchase history and contact
info to any government agency that asks for it. As we feel it’s no one’s
business but yours what you buy and how you buy it, we process
our own credit card transactions with an actual merchant account
(just like a grown up business). Shop in comfort at Auntie Fashions.
Q. Do your shirts shrink?
A. Our shirts are all high quality 100% cotton, pre-shrunk
t-shirts. That being said, yes they do shrink a little, particularly
if you throw them into the dryer. Best advice to avoid any shrinkage,
wash in cold water and line dry.
Q. I only wear sweatshop-free clothing. What is the Auntie
Fashions policy on this?
A. For years, Auntie Fashions used only Fruit of the Loom
garments. The reasons for this were two-fold. First, when we started
this business, FoL was an American, union supporting company. The
second was the high-quality of their shirts. For a long time we
looked for an alternative to FotL that would allow us to keep our
prices reasonable. Finally, we found a fair-trade company that
makes an excellent quality shirt for a competitive price. All designs
screened by Auntie Fashions after October 2005 have been screened
on Gildan shirts. For more information on Gildan, please click HERE.
Q.
How do I get my business/ organization listed on your Groovy
Links page? Do you trade links?
A.
Let us know who you are and what you’re about.
Reciprocal links are a great way to make a web based business more
successful, but we want to make sure we’re all on the same
page. This means no sex sites, no racist, hateful or right-wing
sites. We also tend not to do link exchanges with the CafePress
type web-mall outlets. Since these are in essence temporary websites,
we feel that the constant updating of link lists to add and remove
these here-today-gone-tomorrow businesses is more trouble than
it’s worth. Send us an email and include your URL. We’ll
be in touch.
Q.
I’m very happy with the shirts I’ve purchased
from Auntie Fashions and the service was great. How can I help
spread the word about your wonderful company?
A.
Tell your friends and neighbors. When you wear an Auntie Fashions
shirt, you will get comments, laughs and feedback. Please tell
them where you got your cool shirt. And by all means, if you
have a website or participate in blogs or discussion groups,
we’d
love the exposure. In addition, please feel free to use any of
the banner ads we have created for your use. These banners come
in a variety of sizes and can be found on our Groovy
Links page.
Q. I love your designs and want to change the world. Can
you recommend some good causes?
A. Check out our Auntie
Cares page. This big ol’ world needs a LOT of fixing,
so get active and have fun!
Q. I would like to become a distributor of Auntie Fashions
shirts. Can I do this?
A. Auntie Fashions is always looking to expand sales opportunities.
Send us an email with your contact info and tell us more about
your business. We are very flexible with bulk rate pricing. Please
be aware that all Auntie Fashions designs are copyrighted and remain
the property of Auntie Fashions. Be warned, if we learn that someone
is stealing our designs, our bloodthirsty lawyers will pay
them a visit. Or worse, Mal may personally show you how talented
he is with a baseball bat.
Q. I notice that a lot of your shirts are of a decidedly
left-wing persuasion. Are you a bunch of commies or what?
A. Nah. We just hate the right wing and their bullshit,
John-Wayne-version of history and politics. This country was made
great by the people who worked the mines, built the railroads,
tilled the fields, slaved in the factories, organized into unions
and defended the constitution, and not by the weasel owners of
these operations who profited on their sweat and blood. If you
need an education based on reality, read A People’s History
of the United States by Howard Zinn or anything by Michael
Parenti.
Q.
I’m in a militia or other right wing organization
and would like to kill you. How do I go about this?
A.
Go immediately to the nearest National Rifle Association chapter.
We’re the ones with the conservative haircuts, the ‘I
Love Guns’ lapel pins and the constipated looks on our faces.
And by the way, I slept with your sister last night!
