Be careful. This company are scammers. All the care about is a quick buck. They do not care about their customers or their feedback and have royally screwed our small independent company over.
We are a small business and we decided to have garments produced for merchandise and to give away to our guests/customers. After looking at a few options we decided to go with Printsome. We had looked at their reviews and they seemed good.
Initially, we sent them our design for a very simple teeshirt and sweatshirt. Along with the design we sent very clear specific instructions about the placement of the logos. We did not just do this once, over the course of design process, about 30 times, we instructed their designer 6 times where to place the logo. 6 times! We informed them at the very beginning of the process in writing and in the design layout that we produced. We even wrote it twice in large bold writing.
Basically, we instructed them to place the logo at 115mm from the neckline to the central axis of our logo. 6 times! Instead, they have placed the logo at 155mm from the neckline or 115mm to the top of the logo. Whats the big deal? Well, how Printsome placed the logo results in a logo that is closer to to the stomach than the chest. It means we have over a €1000 worth of garments that we can't sell or give away as they look so bad. The image of our brand/company is very important to us and this is something that we can't compromise on.
After we pointed out the issue to Printsome they weren't very helpful and their response was that it was our fault. (after instructiing them 6 times, it was our fault!) As we had approved their draft layout with the measurement of 115mm we assumed that this was to the centre of the logo but no, according to Printsome it was to the top of the logo. Which to be fair was far from clear and if we had thought for a second that it was to the top of the logo we would have never approved it. Why would we?! Given that we had spent a lot of effort instructing them where to place the logo... over 6 times! We never assumed that they could actually be so incompetent.
Eventually, Printsome offered to cover the cost of reprinting the teeshirts but we would have to foot the bill for the "expensive" sweatshirts. An offer we refused on principle and as we're a small company we simply can't afford to pay twice for sweatshirts that should have been printed correctly the first time around.
We feel that we have been treated incredibly poorly by a company that really should admit to their incompetence. If you've been instructed 6 times where to place a logo and you still mess it up would you not feel responsible? Given that this is something that they do for a business would it not be reasonable to assume that this could be done correctly? Sadly for us this was beyond them and we'd urge anyone reading this review to select another company for their printing needs.

Overall very happy so far,
Thank you Printsome!
Disgusting attitude I then said fine I will ask for a quote because he couldn't remember the prices an wouldn't offer to discuss them to which he then said there is no point in giving a price if I have no store! how can I create a business plan and store without prices?! such a shame he had to have such a terrible attitude.
