Peter,
Thanks for the email. I'm not sure why the credit issue has happened, but I'd like to take this opportunity to thank you for providing me with a great service for the past 1.5 - 2 years (not sure how long its been!). T-post has always sent me really cool shirts that have always been a topic of conversation when i've worn them, which have then enabled me to discuss the import topics depicted in the shirts. You have a really great and exciting product.
Having said that, I would like to cancel my subscription - and my reasons are 2-fold. I will share them with you in case you are interested in the feedback.
The first reason is simply that I can't really afford it anymore, due to the exchange rates and foreign transaction fees the t-shirts are costing me more than double what I can buy one for locally - and for a while that was OK, but times are a bit tough for me personally so I have to pull back on my spending a bit, and this seems like a natural place to start.
Secondly, I have to admit that I have been a bit disappointed with a few of the recent designs (the green shirt, and the clown) - with emphasis on the most recent - the noose. I was actually offended by it, I feel that in this country it has very real racial connotations and I would never feel good wearing it in public. Regardless of the artists intention it just wasn't tasteful in my eyes.
That's all, and I understand everyone has personal tastes and I'm sure there is someone that complains about every shirt - and I don't want to complain, its just that combined with my financial situation its not gonna work out for me for now - so please cancel my subscription.
As for ideas for the future - I always thought that it might be cool if each designer came up with 2 or 3 ideas and than the subscribers got to either vote for the one they liked - with the winner being printed - or just select 1 from the possibly choices. That way a designer can still be given his or her inspiration and then people that wear the shirts can still have some say in what they receive - just an idea!
Good luck!
Please let me know if there is anything else I have to do to cancel my subscription.
Thanks for the good t's
