Frequently Asked Questions

Will all of my merchandise be shipped together?

In order to offer the variety of products our customers desire, we work with a number of select workshops. We commission them to finish and ship your merchandise directly to you. Occasionally, orders will contain products that are completed by more than one workshop. As a result, these orders will not ship together with those completed by others. Additionally, different types of merchandise may ship separately depending on packing requirements. We understand that this may be a little frustrating. However, it is necessary in order to provide the variety of quality merchandise we offer.

How do I care for my merchandise?

Merchandise will include care instructions when you receive it. With rare exceptions, printed and embroidered garments should be turned inside out and washed in cold water. In the event you are concerned about how to care for a particular item, we’re happy to provide guidance! Simply Contact Us.

What are you doing for the Environment?

We look for suppliers with a strong focus on the environment. For example, those that maintain state-of-the-art equipment which, among other things, uses minimal water. They also source materials, including inks and dyes, which are the safest available for the ecology and people. Our suppliers also work to minimize waste in packaging and source eco-friendly packaging materials. Many of the packaging materials are either recyclable or biodegradable. Tee-Zen Designs is focusing on products that are eco-friendly as well. We are actively researching new products which are reusable and/or created from sustainable materials. As we’re able, we are adding them to – or replacing existing items in – our catalog.

Are there restrictions on Coupons, Sales, and Discounts?

Tee Zen Designs occasionally offers discounts in the form of coupons, sales, and bulk discounts. When offered, coupons can be found on our website and through email newsletters. Enter coupons at checkout in the “Have a Coupon?” area. Coupons usually can not be combined with sale prices or bulk discounts. Products that are on sale will display the sale price along with the original price. These discounts are applied automatically when the product is added to your shopping cart. Discounts are available for corporate and charity purposes. Please Contact Us.

What should I know about Sizes?

Sizes vary from one manufacturer to the next and have different interpretations all over the world. Every product we sell includes size details specific to that merchandise. Returns and exchanges for size are limited to cases where we ship an item that is not what you ordered. For example; you ordered a Medium and we shipped a Small.

What should I know about Colors?

Computer monitors, tablets, and phone screens vary significantly from one brand to the next, and the variations in available user settings are infinite. The colors displayed in product listings are the closest approximation of the item possible. We develop these using a name-brand monitor with typical settings. Returns and exchanges for color are limited to cases where we ship an item that is not what you ordered. For example; you ordered Coral and we shipped Violet. If you’re unsure about a particular color definition, please don’t hesitate to Contact Us – we’ll do our best to answer any questions you have.

What about Taxes, Customs, and VAT?

Sales Taxes – Tee Zen Designs does not generally charge state sales tax, as we are located in New Hampshire, USA.

Why doesn’t merchandise ship immediately?
