As i said though, i use this stuff generally when out places (and have done for many years), so to find the shelves constantly empty has been an absolute pain.

Bought this little beauty last week from a London coin shop, it's North Korean! The coin looks silver at first glance, but is actually made of aluminium (as is the case with a lot of coins in the DPRK).

This could have made for a great range, but alas, it's the t-shirt equivelent of Phantom Menace.

Only thing I will point out is that, if they get reduced, CMYK screen prints even digitally are expensive to produce so worth around the £3-4 mark if they go down like that again. They might be using DTG for that though, who knows.

CMYK - cyan magenta yellow K (black) inks, applied seperately
DTG - direct to garment via giant printer
Former is generally a screenprint/ink 4 colours total, depends
Former more labour intensive, cheaper in volume, appears more artistic
Latter better colour definition/details and gradients (e.g. photos), cheaper in low volumes but catching up with screenprint in terms of economy very fast. As or less durable, sometimes more.
tl;dr full colour images are worth more than that gooseberry fool "Agent Smith" tee which is worth in print terms about 10p. Because of this they will generally be produced in lower quantities to mitigate risk.
In consumer terms process colour / screenprint and DTG are basically the same. It's the single colour prints that aren't really worth much money at all.
