Warning: Dirty Microbe
You may remember that Dirty Microbe sent the Shirt Snob a few tees for review back in January. Unfortunately, we have discovered via Tshirt Island that there are many unhappy customers. It looks like the company is charging credit cards and not sending out the tees. We are quite surprised and disappointed in the company. Last week we contacted them and asked for a response. We have yet to hear back from them. Therefore, we thought it wise to let you all know about the issues and to buy from them at your own risk.

I can confirm something is bad with them at the moment, I suspect they stopped running business, but haven't pulled the site down or payment system or something to that effect, I sent them 5 t-shirt ideas over a month ago and had no responses at all, glad my shirts is not for sale there, but still weird with the no response at all, figured my designs sucked, but if they dont respond to anything, they might be out of business
The company is bankrupt, but before going out of business (through no fault of the comapny’s) it shipped as many orders as possible and told as many customers as it could to ask their credit card companies to return the money paid to DM. Check this link that gives a good explaination:

I’d be unhappy if I were a customer, but if you’re old enough to buy something online you’re old enough to know that things like this can happen and working with your credit card company can resolve your loss.
