The best thing about the Internet is that you can buy almost anything from the comfort of your own home. No more long lines and pushy sales people. It is now just you and your personal computer and your credit card off on one happy sales spree. You can now buy everything from cars to custom made T shirts online faster than you could have driven to even a local store.

The problem that you will run in to is that as easy as it is to make the purchase is as easy as it is to make a terrible mistake. That means that you, as the consumer, now actually have to take some due diligence and actually research things and come to your own conclusions about the products based on online blogs and web site information.

I know it wounds a little scary but relax. If you were actually going to a store there is a chance that you would be relying on input from your friends and what they liked or disliked and you would also be relying on the store sales person. So you are essentially relying on the same support system for an online purchase as you do for an in store purchase, they just have different names. Does that make you feel any better?

The things that are paramount in being able to safely buy custom made T shirts online is to make sure that the measurements you use are accurate. Some folks will opt to going to a tailor and getting the measuring done and then go in and place the orders from those figures, others will do it themselves. Honestly either method is fine as long as you are tenacious and get them right.

The other important thing to keep in mind is the return policy for the on line entity that you are going to be purchasing from. The last thing that you want to do is to run up a big bill for clothing just to get it and find it is bad or the wrong style or size and trying to return it to find out that the return carries a 50 percent restocking fee or worse yet, all sales are final.
