The way their shirt orders are handled is similar to most websites (that aren't venders) handling of such things.

They made an account with company XYZ (there are plenty of them), where you upload a design, set colors, set profit (they set it to $0), etc... When someone orders a shirt, it's actually made one at a time. The company is located somewhere, doesn't stock the shirts, and just makes them per order. They're then shipped to the person who orders directly and 254 has no hands in the process.

I know you can set the profit to whatever you want, but they chose $0.
