01

Custom Print-on-Demand Model

Key Takeaways (In Plain English)
  • Every garment purchased on Shirt Bazaar is bespoke and printed on-demand specifically for you after your order is confirmed.
  • Because physical items are custom-manufactured and 1-of-1 designs are irreversibly claimed, orders cannot be cancelled once production begins.
  • We stand behind the physical print quality of our garments with our 14-day defect resolution guarantee.

Every physical apparel item purchased on Shirt Bazaar is individually crafted using state-of-the-art Direct-to-Garment (DTG) printing technologies. Unlike traditional mass-retailers stocking pre-printed warehouse inventory, our products do not exist in physical form until an order is placed.

Because production commences rapidly following payment authorization, standard return policies for off-the-shelf goods do not apply. However, we are fully committed to product excellence and guarantee complete resolution for manufacturing defects, damaged shipments, or incorrect deliveries.

02

14-Day Free Reprint & Defect Guarantee

Key Takeaways (In Plain English)
  • If your shirt arrives damaged, defective, misprinted, or in the wrong size/style from what you ordered, we will send a 100% free reprint or full refund.
  • You must notify support within 14 calendar days of confirmed delivery with photos of the issue.
  • You generally do not need to ship the defective garment back.

We provide a comprehensive 14-Day Free Reprint Guarantee covering the following manufacturing and fulfillment errors:

  • Print Quality Flaws: Significant ink smearing, peeling, graphical distortion, wrong placement, or incorrect color profile rendering.
  • Garment Defects: Tears, holes, broken stitching, or fabric blemishes present upon unboxing.
  • Fulfillment Errors: Receiving the incorrect design, wrong size, or incorrect garment color compared to your verified order confirmation.
  • In-Transit Damage: Products crushed, ripped, or damaged during postal transit.

When a verified defect occurs, you have the option to receive a complimentary reprint rush-shipped to your address or a full refund to your original payment method.

03

Lost, Stolen & Delayed Shipments

Key Takeaways (In Plain English)
  • If tracking indicates your package is lost in transit, or has not updated past the estimated delivery window, we will rush a free replacement.
  • For packages marked 'Delivered' but missing, please check with neighbors/building managers before filing a stolen package inquiry.

3.1 Lost in Transit:If your tracking code shows no movement for more than 7 consecutive business days past the carrier's estimated delivery date, the parcel is deemed lost in transit. We will immediately initiate an expedited replacement print and reshipment at zero cost to you.

3.2 Delivered but Missing:If a package is marked "Delivered" by the postal carrier but cannot be located, we advise waiting 24 hours (carriers frequently scan ahead) and checking with household members or building reception. If still missing, contact our support desk for carrier claims assistance.

04

1-of-1 Genesis Claims & Digital IP Rights

Key Takeaways (In Plain English)
  • A 1-of-1 Genesis Claim confers permanent, exclusive commercial IP rights and provisions your dedicated creator storefront.
  • Because digital ownership rights and commercial licenses attach immediately upon transaction settlement, the digital claim fee portion is non-refundable.
  • If the physical shirt included in the claim bundle has a defect, it is 100% covered under our free reprint guarantee.

When you execute a 1-of-1 Genesis Claim, you purchase a combined bundle: (a) exclusive permanent commercial intellectual property assignment, (b) instant automated provisioning of your creator storefront at /creator/yourhandle, (c) ongoing resale royalty rights, and (d) a physical genesis specimen garment.

Because commercial IP ownership and storefront assets transfer irrevocably upon payment confirmation, the digital claim component cannot be refunded, reversed, or unwound. Any physical specimen garment included in the claim bundle remains fully protected by our 14-Day Free Reprint Guarantee.

05

Sizing & Buyer's Remorse (Final Sale)

Key Takeaways (In Plain English)
  • Because each garment is made on demand, returns or exchanges for buyer preference (e.g. changing your mind on design or ordering the wrong size) are not supported.
  • Please consult our garment size guides and fit specifications before completing checkout.

Because each item is custom printed on demand, we cannot accept returns or issue refunds due to buyer's remorse, change of mind, or ordering an incorrect size if the item matches the size specifications ordered.

We provide detailed sizing charts (chest width, body length, and fit guidelines) on all product pages. We encourage careful review of measurements prior to finalizing your order.

06
