Frequently asked questions
darngood is run by the same people who run badknees. We are a small team of four people. We make all of the stuff in our brick+mortar/print shop on West Kirkwood Avenue in Bloomington, Indiana.
Yes, our stickers are very legit. We use the same materials the mega online sticker companies use and and our printers and plotters are commercial grade. Our laminate ensures your stickers will survive for years on laptops, cars, computers, etc.
If you spend $100 or more on stickers, buttons, or magnets, than yes, it is free. If you spend less than that, we are charging you a flat $9 fee in the US. If you are ordering shirts, totes, etc, shipping will be on you. We can give you estimates once we know how many items you are ordering and where we are shipping them to.
A few reasons. We are a small operation in a small space. More materials require more space. We print all of our stickers for our badknees brand and we prefer the matte look. Hopefully one day we can figure out the logistics to offer other stuff. Glossy will be the next offering.
We think we can do it very quickly. If you're ordering during the week, we'll get you mockups to approve within 24 hours. Once approved, your stickers will ship within 24-48 hours. It could happen sooner depending on our workload.
We think we can do it very quickly. We have been smashing buttons and magnets for over a decade! With that said, this is all based on quantity. If you are ordering 100 or less, we can get them out 24-48 hours after you approve mockups. If you are ordering 200+ it could take up to a week for us to get them in the mail. Buttons and magnets are more labor intensive than stickers. Feel free to message us and let us know the specifics/deadline and we can let you know if it's doable with our workload.
Very good question. We'd need you to fill out the form on the website to give you a specific answer. It often depends on quanity of items and complexity of work you want done. It also depends on our current workload. We are a small team in a small space, printing manually, so we have limits. Usually, though, we tell people we will have print jobs done within 7-10 business days of mockups being approved. We do not factor shipping time into any of this.
Excellent question. We love talking about this topic. We do both. For our badknees brand, we screen print the vast majority of our garments with water based ink because we prefer the look/feel/vibe. With that said, we will often heat press plastisol screen printed transfers for custom work when it makes sense and is more cost effective for the customer. If you have high color count jobs, we will usually heat press hybrid transfers (a combination of digital/screenprinted ink). We stay away from DTF (Direct to Film) transfers because we personally don't like it.
No, but if you order a sticker over at badknees, leave a note on the order and let us know you are interested in some custom darngood stickers and we'll throw in a few stickers for you to look at.
Darngood question! We were back and forth on some different names. We say "pretty darn good" quite a bit around here. We like the two syllable business names. We like combining one-syllable words together to create two-syllable business names (see badknees). We wanted something positive in the title and this domain was available. And we are from Bloomington, Indiana where they serve Darn Good Soup. We think those are the reasons. And we got the @darngood handle on insta. Go give it a follow.
Helpful information
We will take returns or offer refunds if items we send are truly defective. We ask that you look closely at the mockups before approving them. We cannot offer returns or refunds if there is a typo or you are unhappy with anything you approved.
Stickers, buttons, magnets - We aim to have them in the mail 1-2 business days after you approve proofs. If button or magnet quanity is over 200, it could be 1-5 business days. Spend $100+ and shipping is free. Under $100, shipping is $9 in the US.
Shirts - Shipped 7-10 business days after mockups approved and invoice paid. If it will be longer than 7-10 days, we will tell you that when we quote you.
