For reals? I sell very little on TeePublic…like $5/mo. They overpaid artists back in November and need everyone to pay them back. For me, that’s $.23. If you really need the $.23, I’m not sure you’re going to last as a company.

    They probably sent it to everyone they detected they overpaid, no matter the amount. I’m sure they don’t actually care about $0.23 - it’s the people who sell a lot more than you they are worried about.

        I mean, it probably went down like this:

        Accountant: I discovered a discrepancy in the payout system, we paid people too much!

        Manager: Hey Engineer, somebody (not me) fucked up and now I need you to fix it, get me the list of everybody who owes us money.

        Engineer: Yes boss! … Ok here’s the list.

        Manager: Ok now I’ll just have Marketing send out an email to everyone on this list.

        Engineer: Well some of these people owe us only $0.23, we don’t need to bother them, right?

        Marketing: Too bad already sent!

      True. If they had an ounce of common sense, though, they would set a minimum amount below which they don’t bother to send a message.
