Default Is this a Plastisol Transfer?

So there is an eBay seller on eBay with the following message in his post:

"This shirt is a high quality silk screened t-shirt. It's NOT a cheap heat transfer that will crack after a few washes. Beware of heat transfers."

This seller sells novelty tees. Don't you think that he uses a plastisol transfer? If he is actually screen printing each shirt, that would be a TON of screens to save. Let me know what you guys think.

I attached a picture of one of the t-shirts. It looks like a plastisol transfer to me.

It probably is plastisol tranfers. But it does not matter depending on how much business he gets. if he is selling a lot he could be doing direct screen printing? I don't know how many designs he is selling. they also could be stock transfers.
