Very different business models.
TeeSpring is affiliate based, thousands of marketers are designing shirts for their niche and spending money on advertising them. They cover every niche you can think of, and they know their market. There are sports fans designing shirts for sport fans, military guys designing shirts for soldiers, rednecks designing shirts for rednecks, and so on.
T-Shirt Hell was focusing on offensive, funny t-shirts as I recall. That's just one niche. And 10 (or 100) guys sitting in an office simply cannot know the taste and humor of all the people in North America.
Some of the people pushing the t-shirt sites are genius marketers too. Someone who can earn tens of thousands per month from home designing & selling t-shirts, won't take a low-paid office job at a t-shirt company. T-Shirt Hell and the like cannot attract such great talent, at least definitely not in big numbers.
