Artist FAQ

As a seller on our website your satisfaction is very important to us. We are constantly evaluating our services and procedures to make this the best possible platform for musicians to sell their swag.

With that in mind here is a list of Frequently Asked Questions

We use a printing platform called printify.com which is a print-on-demand service. This eliminates our need to manage inventory and staff. We pass this savings on to you the artists by not charging anything in advance for our blues swag program.

When you think of “print-on-demand” you might associate it with “iron-on” printing, which tends to be poor quality and fades quickly. We hire only high-end DTG vendors that use vibrant, long-lasting ink that is not heavy on the fabric. When printed on our retail quality apparel, you’ll see why our products have consistently received 5 star reviews by customers.

Even though our name is Wang Dang Doodle Tees, we are the place to go for all of your blues swag!

Yes! I use a combination of my own hand drawn illustration, photography, and graphic design with Adobe software. I’ll be happy to show any of you how to do anything that I do that you like. This website is done in WordPress, I’ll show you how to do that to. I am here to help you turn your music into your business!

Currently, since we are using an online platform to manage our production and shipping we don’t have flexibility to set our own shipping rates. The rates are below.

There is a $4.00 fee for the first item and then a $2.00 fee for each additional item.

So, if you order 3 shirts, you pay $4.00 x 1 + $2.00 x 2 = $8.00 total for the 3 shirts.

Normally, orders are processed, printed and shipped within 48 hours. Unfortunately with several of our plants closed or working at reduced levels due to the health issues it has taken as long as 3 weeks for orders to ship. However, we are adding new vendors all the time and our turnaround times are steadily getting back to normal. Currently, orders are shipping within 7-10 days on average.

We are committed to increasing our capacity until we get back to normal.

Yes. you can order your shirts in any quantity so that you have them on-hand when you are performing at live events.

You place the order from the Wang Dang Doodle Tees website just like a regular customer, however, as a seller you get the following wholesale options;

  • We can remove the Wang Dang Doodle Tees logo on the inside neck and reduce the cost by $1.93 per shirt.
  • We can use a cheaper quality shirt. For this option we use a Delta or Gilden 100% cotton tee. The printing may not be as vibrant on this fabric as on our “retail” tees but it still meets our standards of quality.
  • Since the first shirt will be shipped at $4 and the rest at $2 each, you will need to factor that fee into the overall cost of your order.

PLEASE CONTACT ME PRIOR TO PLACING A BULK ORDER (I will set up a separate webpage for you to place the orders using your wholesale rates)

EXAMPLE ORDER 1 (50 shirts using retail quality tees):

  • Cost of the shirt + printing + WDDT fee = $10.45 x 50 = $522.50*
  • Shipping = 1 shirt x $4 + 49 shirts at $2 = $102

TOTAL: $604.50 or $12.09 per shirt. If you sell for $25 you make $12.91 per shirt.

EXAMPLE ORDER 2 (50 shirts using cheaper tees):

  • Cost of the shirt + printing + WDDT fee = $8.30 x 50 = $415.00*
  • Shipping = 1 shirt x $4 + 49 shirts at $2 = $102

TOTAL: $517.00 or $10.38 per shirt. If you sell for $25 you make $14.62 per shirt.

Note: You can set your own prices so this is based on the current prices listed on the website. I think a competitive range is anywhere from $20-32.

* this price may vary slightly based on current rates for the apparel and your specific WDDT agreement.

In case of returns, we will refund or replace the total amount of a product that is sent back due to either receiving the wrong item(s) or damage in transit.

I am happy to let you use the artwork I designed for your t-shirts on anything that you want. I can send you high-resolution art files in any format. I will charge you a fee of $50. That way I can afford this website and to provide most of the benefits free.

Please note that since my printing is done using a Direct-To-Garment (DTG) process, the artwork is in a CMYK or RGB process color file format and not compatible with screen-printing. If you would like to try and find local printers for bulk orders be sure to keep that in mind. If you would like more information please contact me.

At the present, I have not been able to find a way to allow each artist to track your own orders without also seeing everyone else’s. There has got to be a way, and I will find one eventually. Transparency is essential to me so I am open to different ways to keep you in the loop as sales come in, other than with your weekly update and payments.

  • I can email you every time a sale comes for you.
  • I can set up a password protected page that you can access and track your orders. I will update it daily.

Contact me for more information.

I am not an accountant, so I would ask a professional. 🙂

I send the payments using Paypal, with the setting for like a gift to friend, rather than as payment for something. If anyone would like to receive payments in another way for tax purposes please contact me.
