FAQ

After I removed my poster from the shipping tube, it was all curled up. How do I fix this?
Like a shy mollusk taken from its shell, a Pop Chart Lab print fresh from its test tube may for a period of time remain curled inward upon itself. To emend this, you have several options. You may unroll the poster, place several heavy books upon each end, and allow it to sit for a day or two. Or you may pop the poster directly into a frame that will give it no choice but to remain flat. Or you may curl the poster the opposite direction around the shipping tube, secure both ends with rubber bands, and allow it to sit for an hour or two, thereby giving the shipping tube a chance to serve man one last time before it returns to the earth from whence it came.

My poster arrived damaged. Now what?
We pack our posters in sturdy, damage-resistant test tubes, but on occasion mail couriers do manage to completely destroy them. Would that they knew the fine products contained within the boxes they so wantonly mangle! If you’ve received a poster that has sadly suffered a cruel death en route to you, please email us a clear picture of the damage at orders@popchartlab.com within 15 days of receiving it and we’ll send out a replacement forthwith.

What’s the deal with shipping?
We’ve helpfully included a hyperlink in our shopping cart that contains all manner of information on shipping. Click there and all will be revealed. Or, here are the broad outlines: a. we generally ship the same day you order; b. we ship all over the world; c. we offer several speeds of shipping, at appropriate prices; and d. we don’t kill our customers on shipping charges and in fact offer free standard shipping on domestic orders of $75 or more.

How do your shirts fit?
We’ve included a sizing chart on each t-shirt product page, but in general our shirts fit fairly snug.

The shirt I ordered is too large or too small or too awesome. Can I exchange it?
Of course you may. Email us at orders@popchartlab.com with the reason you’d like to exchange it, and we’ll provide directions for shipping the item back to us.

How do I care for my Pop Chart Lab shirt?
To keep a PCL shirt looking mint, it’s best to wash it inside out in cold water and then line dry it. You can also tumble dry it on the lowest heat setting. If you dry it on high heat it may, like all products made of fine cotton, slightly shrink.

Do you sell framed posters?
Check out our BLOG for info on our new 18 x 24 framing option.  If those don't suit you, we’ve sized our products so that they fit into standard frames that can be purchased for a pittance anywhere that sells frames. Or you could remunerate a skilled craftsman at your local framing store who can professionally present your product. Or you could just place two binder clips at the top edges of your poster and hang the clips from two small nails you’ve inserted into your wall. Your options are limited only by your imagination, the tensile strength of 100# paper, and the broader laws of physics.

I live in Brooklyn. Just like you! Can I pick up my Pop Chart Lab product in person?
At this time, we’re not set up for direct retail sales, but check our Retail Locations page for stores that carry our products. We can often be found at local craft fairs, flea markets, and bazaars; check our Twitter and Facebook pages for more details.

How can I offer PCL merchandise in my retail store?

Will you produce a custom poster or t-shirt for me?
Due to the economies of scale, it’s quite expensive for us to produce a one-off design. All the same, email us at popchartlab@popchartlab.com and we’ll be happy to discuss the matter with you.
