Dave is white trash
by daveistrash
Dave, the owner of this store runs the biggest scam in all of Syracuse. This guy would rip off his own mother. Anytime you go in to buy an item from this store, Dave or a sales associate will talk to about the Syracuse game to try to distract you. Once he has done so, he will rip off the price tag or switch the item for a different one. He will mark up the price and not give you a receipt. This way you will have no proof that he has done anything wrong. If you are an consumer of Syracuse apparel do not shop at this store and please refer to the better business bureau with any wrong doing.
- Pros: Not a dam thing
- Cons: Everything dont buy from thios guy!

Are you kidding me?
by Cuse03
Recently was in town to wanted some SU gear. Stopped in to Mannys before heading to Shirt World and bought a few things. Upon heading into Shirt World I was accosted by the owner for shopping Mannys first. When leaving the store I said " Have a good day" and the response was "Yeah, whatever". Later was walking by the store and a bum asked for some cash. The owner then came out and said " They won't give you anything." I asked the owner what his problem was and was waved on. I know quite a few people up in the area and will advise them to never, ever shop at that store again. It just takes one person to spread the word.
- Pros: Nothing!!!!
- Cons: Everything!!!!

First hand experience of what was going on
by tweakamd
I used to work here. It took me awhile to catch on to what was going on, but after awhile I saw it. While the owner, Dave, rings you up, he will chat about everything Syracuse related to get you to pay little or no attention to what hes doing on the register. He especially got the students good who would just hand over their card and sign for whatever price he gave them. Im not sure how he calculated the amount to over charge, but it was usually enough to have people realize it later and come back and complain. Also he will tell you the cost of the Syracuse merchandice is so great becasue he has to pay for royalties, but what he is doing with 75% of the merchandise is putting offical logos stickers on the tags of cheap shirts he has printed with no royalties paid to the university.
- Pros: There is a lot of different merchandise
- Cons: The owner's a con artist

Great Selection and Deals If your on your toes and keep an eye on the shady sales staff
by jcou
The store was a little cramped but filled to the gills with deals and selection, but a bit shady. Was visiting cuse recently and was amazed to find a shop so close to the Dome with the deals and selection that Shirt World had. I purchased what should have been about $170 (including tax) in merchandise but was charged $202 on my statement and the receipt was not in the bag. Was also told while I was there that they had a website but was currently being reconstructed. Got some great gear, but wished I had read the previous review before I went. My advice is ask for the receipt in hand and review the itemized listing and compare it with what you purchased before you leave and with that in mind you will score.
- Pros: Selection and Deals
- Cons: Shady Sales Team and Mysterious Card Charge

they steal from you
by robanthoni
watch their credit card scam and the over charging of merchandise. double check the prices of everything before you purchase anything, and check your receipt as soon as you get it.....and make sure you get it, don't believe it's in the bag like they say
- Pros: they really do have a great selection of clothing
- Cons: they'll rob you with a smile on their face
