Q: "What's MAGGOT DEATH INDUSTRIES?"
A: MAGGOT DEATH INDUSTRIES is a one-person, D.I.Y. shop, screen printing crust punk and extreme music artwork on issued army surplus clothing and ethically manufactured t-shirts.
Q: "How long does shipping take?"
A: Orders are processed and shipped within 1-3 business days. Domestic U.K. orders are dispatched via Royal Mail 24 and should arrive the next day after you receive your shipping confirmation. International orders are dispatched via Royal Mail International Priority. Parcels to Europe, the U.S.A. and R.O.W. can take up to 2 weeks.
Q: "How much is International shipping?"
A: I charge a flat rate for International t-shirt orders because the cost of sending one t-shirt or three t-shirts isn't that different. Each rate varies depending on the destination. Orders that contain only patches can be shipped worldwide for £1.00.
Q: "Do you have a tracking number for my order?"
A: Yes, if you selected tracked shipping at checkout. If your order is tracked you will receive your tracking number in your shipping confirmation email. If you selected the cheaper 'International Standard' shipping option you wont receive a tracking number.
Q: "It's been 'x' days, where is my order?"
A: If you didn't choose tracked shipping then I'm afraid I can't tell you. Royal Mail collect my mail sacks in the evening and by the next morning it's already either loaded onto a delivery van or onto a plane heading out of the country. COVID + Brexit have caused considerable disruption to international post, so please keep this in mind. Since the beginning of the pandemic, I've only had 3 orders go missing. But, if you think your order is truly lost in the post send me an email and we can work something out.
Q: "Do you have a size guide?"
A: Almost all of the surplus stock I receive from my supplier has the tags removed. Because of this, I measure them against Gildan's size chart and size them accordingly. You can find Gildan's size chart online.
Q: "I love my t-shirt but it doesn't fit me, can I return it for a different size?"
A: Yes, send me an email.
Q: "Can you print some t-shirts for my band?"
A: Yes, send me an email.
Q: "Do you take requests for designs?"
A: Yes, send me an email.
Q: "Can I request a custom colour t-shirt?"
A: Maybe, send me an email.
Q: "What ink do you use?"
A: Every item in the shop is screen printed using eco-friendly, extra soft base, Amex Texprint waterbased inks.
Q: "Where do you get your army surplus clothing from?"
A: Some of it comes from the Royal Navy, some from the M.O.D., some from the Italian Army and some from the U.S.
