For once, srah is not complaining!
I recently ordered this shirt from Teh Internets, because pirates are such total wimps compared to lady cops and waitresses. 
Unfortunately when the shirt arrived, it was poorly printed - there was this sort of phantom¹ shadow of the Comics Curmudgeon URL underneath where the URL is supposed to be, as though the press had slipped or something. I don't know. I'm not a t-shirt maker so I don't know the specifics of why it happened - I just know that it didn't look right.
Today, after a couple of weeks of saying, "I'll get around to that later" I emailed CafePress about exchanging this t-shirt for a better-quality print job. This is the response I got:
Dear Sarah,I am sorry to hear your order was not received in perfect condition. I want you to be 100% satisfied with your CafePress.com experience.

How awesome is that? I was all prepared to send the shirt back in order to get a new one, but they don't even want me to bother with that. Saves me a trip to the post office²! Thanks, CafePress and Latarsia H.! With any luck, the shirt may come a little early and I can wear your wares all over San Francisco.
¹ This phantom did not wear stripey purple tights.
² Well, not really, because I still have to return other stuff I bought online, but this saves me carrying another package!
