I like fishies, i got some chilli and lime marinated mackerel. Fresh and 79p each from Tesco.

Dear Sir or Madam,

I picked up a shirt I ordered from you last Friday (20.11.09). I'd like to thank you for a speedy delivery.

The order content was a T-shirt, your Item No. xxxxxxxxx
Order No. xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Shipment: xxxxxxxxxxxx

To my misfortune I had to be disappointed with what I received. I am attaching a few pictures of the flaws I would've not expected to get with the price I paid. Although 24,80 EUR incl. shipping in itself isn't all that much for a premium quality shirt, considering the quality of what I received, it feels a bit steep.

I apologise in advance if the language in this email is a bit aggressive, but since I just noticed the issues, and because claims need to be written as quickly as possible, this is unavoidable.

I've attached images of the flaws with this email. As you can see, the left sleeve stiching had missed the sleeve entirely on a circa 5cm area, resulting in a "tear" (I used apostrophes since it actually never was teared, but just not stiched). Also, once I took the shirt off after fitting it, the collar streched a bit and never quite returned to shape; this also happened with a portion of the back of the shirt (the normal place you grab when you undress a shirt).

The shirt brand is Bay Island Sportswear and it is produced in Honduras. I encourage you to reconsider this shirt supplier as their quality is in my opinion, which is that of a general consumer, below par for a company of your reputation.

Since I didn't buy the T-Shirt just to send it back, I didn't think much of your refund policy, which I now briefly aquainted myself with. I hope you understand my following points of view regarding the following steps of refund, which do not completely match with your policy:

1. I would rather not send the shirt back. You can see the quality issues in the images I'm attaching and I wouldn't have to go through the hassle of sending the shirt back, nor paying for the shipment (since that is non-refundable).

2. Since I find the print to be one of the best I've seen in a while, I was looking forward to getting this product and wearing it. This is why I'm grabbing a needle and some thread and try to temporarily fix the shirt so I can wear it in a few hours for tonight.

3. I am hoping for a replacement product from you, I.e. the same print a) on material that doesn't deform when looked at the wrong way, b) which is stiched together and c) for free.

4. If you want to, I'll wash the shirt and report back to you; I remember owning a shirt that was so deformed after it's first wash that it became 7cm shorter and 10cm wider than before the wash. I'm afraid the same thing will happen here; if not, very good news for the Bay Island Sportswear Honduras plant.

I hope this information is helpful to you when reviewing your supply chain.

I have ordered a poster from you once before (maybe in 2005), which was nothing short of perfect in shipment time and quality. I only recently noticed (by accident) that you have T-Shirts as well, with great prints I might add. It's a shame that I had to, in my first shirt order, be disappointed. I hope you can resolve this.

I'm looking forward to receiving your reply.

Respectfully yours,

Me.
