Advantages: Sheer amount of choice. Good service.

Disadvantages: I'd prefer a tad cheaper!

I'd heard of 8ball a lot through magazine ads and online ads but never really been on there for a browse. They sell T shirts mostly, plus a few hoodies and caps. My boyfriend's birthday was coming up so I though a quirky T shirt would be a great pressie for someone who has everything, lives in jeans and tees and has a good sense of humour. Remembering 8 ball I gave them a visit and spent so much time browsing all the brilliantly quirky designs.

The tees are split up into the following categories-

Clearance

80s Fashion

B Movie

Classic Rock & Pop

Computers & Games

Fancy Dress

Graphic Artist

Hip Hop & Beats

Indie & Alternative

Kids & Baby

New Punk/Emo & Hardcore

Offensive

Plain

Political

Punk & New Wave

Reggae & Ska

Retro Tees

Rock & Metal

Funny

Slogan

Sport

Soul, Funk & Jazz

TV & Film

Vintage

Each category has a fair few designs to go through as well, so unless you have a day to spare I'd have a rough idea of what you are looking for! The offensive ones, I'll warn do do as they say. I reckon you'd have to be a little stupid to wear some of these, funny as some of them are as you're likely to get a thump from some one!! My personal favourites are the range of Banksy t shirts they have and I have my eye on a few of those for myself!

If there is a film, band or character you are after, there is a search feature or you can even look through alphabetically to find what you're after. I settled on the only Pob Tshirt I'd ever seen. A bit of an in joke as my other half does a mean impression of Pob. I couldn't have found a more perfect pressie!

Price was I found them a little on the steep side, but I guess you pay for the unusual. A lot of these shirts you just will not find in the shops. I paid £14.99 for my Tshirt plus £2.95 postage. Sale t shirts start at £6.99 and for some of the more desirable you are looking at £16-17.

I was impressed with the delivery times - about 3 days and the product was good quality, fit perfectly and more importantly he loved it.

Overall, a good little store for pressies and to treat yourself.

Summary: A good online store
