Jantzen shirt arrived with Snags in Fabric - What to do?

Just received a new shirt from Jantzen in the Extra Fine Cotton #8249. Maybe this fabric snags easily or maybe the guy sewing the shirt was just careless - the shirt arrived with a few snags.

I'm on the fence as to whether or not I bring this issue to Jantzen's attention. Obviously, I would have preferred the shirt to arrive sans snags. On the other hand, the snags are relatively minor and I don't want to be labeled a pain ********** customer as I think that Jantzen offers the best bang for the buck in terms of shirts and plan on buying many more from them.

Pics are below. Poll is above. Let me know what you think I should do.

Also, I'm not a fabric expert, so some advice regarding how to treat the snags would also be appreciated. If I snipped them carefully at the base of the fabric with scissors, would this take care of the problem or would this lead to the fabric unraveling?

I think you should bring it to their attention.

Shirt with all the bells and whistles - nice fabric, thick mother of pearl buttons and monogram (non-visible of course) - was $59.78 shipped.

So it was the extra fine cotton? I think this should be better than usual and a complaint is in order.

Just ask Ricky what he can do for you. It has helped me in the past.

Unless it was my job to spot things like that out and my finacial stability depended on it I don't think I would have noticed such a minor inconvience. If it is that big of a problem wear it only with suits that way it will never show. All I can say is that you get what you pay for and considering how fast the turn around was you can only expect the qualty to be less then satisfactory.
