No New Venture Capital For CafePress
ByFor the past several hours, I’ve been following stories that Sequoia Capital has backed another $8.3 million venture funding for CafePress. I went straight to CafePress and asked for a comment. Their reaction?
Huh? Whuzzat?
Maybe TechCrunch, along with several other bloggers, got it wrong.
According to CafePress spokesman Marc Cowlin: “The story, as reported by TechCrunch, is incorrect. CafePress did not raise any venture capital, nor have we received funding from Sequoia Capital since our series B funding in 2005. We have been in contact with TechCrunch and they have since posted an update to the original story.”

Isn’t it weird how rumors get started? Let’s start one that Sequoia is giving funding to POD for you.
