thin graphic shirts from Torrid, buy higher quality at Hot Topic

Well, the title says it all. I recently purchased 2 graphic tees from Torrid for my birthday and returned both. I actually lost money returning them, and probably could've made more had I kept and re-sold. My account was upgraded to the VIP status, and I thought free returns applied to past purchases. It did not. 


 

Anyways, because of this, I finally figured out why I no longer enjoy the tees from Torrid. It's because the material they use is too thin and a cotton blend. For graphic tees I prefer 100% cotton. If you're wanting a cool graphic tee with weight to it, I suggest checking out the Hot Topic graphic tees in men's sizes. They also carry women's plus size, but I prefer the men's sizes because they're usually 100% cotton. 

Tip: Wait for Hot Topic's $12 tee sale and stock up. Or buy them during the hot cash sale.  

Oh, Torrid, how I longed for thee, for graphic tees that were bold and free, but alas, my heart was filled with woe, for the shirts I bought were thin and low.

I thought my VIP status was grand, but free returns did not extend, to purchases made in the past, and my wallet suffered at last.

But in my loss, I found the light, the reason for my fashion plight, the material used was not divine, a cotton blend, not pure and fine.

Hot Topic, hear my desperate call, for your tees are weighty, standing tall, in men's sizes, I found my bliss, 100% cotton, a fashion hit.

So, all ye fashionistas fair, heed my words, beware, Of Torrid's tees that are not true, Hot Topic's deals are the way to go, dtock up on the $12 tee sale, or during hot cash, without fail.

Torrid: customers want more BAND graphic tshirts, like the ones from Hot Topic

I would love to see more band tshirts with cool graphics. I have seen quite a few customers request bands of today with plus sizes. For example:

Hey Torrid, Being that you are a sister company of HotTopic I would love to see more actual band shirts! Asking Alexandria, Coheed and Cambria, things that you can get at HotTopic but are our size.

 Me? I LOVE the "old school" stuff. Like Kiss, Beatles, Led Zeppelin.

PLEASE TORRID, WE WANT MORE BAND GRAPHIC T-SHIRTS. WE WANT MORE, WE WANT MORE!

Torrid haute cash vs. Hot Topic Hot cash

Torrid why do you make your customers spend more to get more haute cash? At Hot Topic you only need to spend $30 before you earn the $15 hot cash. At Torrid, correct me if I'm wrong, you need to spend $50 to earn $25 haute cash. Torrid, why don't you mirror the program you have in place at Hot Topic with Torrid.

I KNOW Torrid customers spend way more than Hot Topic customers since your demographic for Torrid is older.
