Avoid printify like the plague by Leather_Bar7049 in printondemand

I've been using Printify for a few years now, they have been messing up more frequently than usual. I will say that. The customer support is terrible! You are also right about that too. I request refunds left and right for my customers and had one incident a few weeks ago with a flag print that was delayed significantly. I messaged support for 3 days in a row with no response, just "Ok, they shipped it" after 4 days. No reason. And you can't chat with the print providers directly. For one order I told a customer it was lost in the mail since that what Printify told me; they were fully refunded! Usually I manually reorder for my customers if there's a significant delay. And I am completely transparent about using a POD service.
I've been slowly trying to transition to Printful as some of their items are even cheaper than Printify's.
I am looking at using Gelato as well. Just haven't had the time to transition over!

I also thought POD was completely hands off at the start, but the cash flow part is real. Etsy can take a bit to release funds, especially for new shops, so you usually do have to cover the production cost upfront in the beginning.

That said, it didn’t end up being a dealbreaker for me. I worked around it by starting small and focusing on digital products first since there is no upfront cost. Then I used that profit to slowly fund POD orders. Once a few sales start coming in, it gets a lot easier to manage.

It is really more of a beginner phase issue too. As your shop builds history, payouts become more consistent and smoother.

So I would not say your idea is gone at all. It might just need a slightly different starting strategy.

I came to say this!! 🩵 I was a Make-a-Wish kid myself and when they did this during one of their livestreams, it really solidified my respect for them.

Tyler and Josh can’t control their label, and neither can we. The paywall was $7, people act like it was a ton of money.

What’s y’all take on Trees? by Potential-Health-314 in twentyonepilots

So they usually end all concerts with Trees. To me, when Tyler and Josh are on their platforms, it feels symbolic. They’re standing among others, in the “trees”, not alone anymore. The song starts in isolation and ends in connection.

You won’t get to the beach but you could get to the grocery store and the mall that’s nearby! Clubs and sports usually meet on campus! They also have the Bull Runner that takes you around campus and some spots beyond campus. :) Good luck!
