I have dealt with this business for several years and have always had great experiences. However, my recent order was exemplary to a higher level. I ordered a pretty large order with multiple colors. Unfortunately, the vendor was unable to provide some of the youth sizes I needed. The owners went out of their way to drive around town to gather and ensure I had the shirts I needed!! I had no expectations for them to do this!! I was fully prepared to refund money to my family members. This just made my day!

I'm from Huntsville,TX and I was aware of Inkslingers, its been around for years. A staple in the screen printing scene in the city. However I choose to go to Pam's print almost an hour away thinking I was getting a better deal. I was EXTREMELY wrong. The customer service, prices and turn around time of INKSLINGERS is unmatched. A Christian owned company that is truly the ideal experience of having custom t-shirts printed!!!!!!
