07. Factors that can affect your pricing:
-
Type: The brands we carry vary in price, but we use our purchasing power to get you the best possible deal on blank apparel. We buy all over the country and do so in large quantities. Then we transfer those savings to our customers.
-
Quantity: Our printing process dictates that if you order a greater quantity of shirts, you'll save money. It's simply less expensive for us to set up and print a large number of the same design than it is to set up and print a small number of the same design.
-
Colors: The process of screen printing requires us to make a separate screen for every color in your design. The fewer colors in your design, the less expensive producing the design becomes for us and for customers.
-
Locations: Each printing location on a piece of apparel (i.e. front, back, sleeve, etc.) demands a specific set-up in order to execute. Therefore, multiple printing locations on your apparel will raise the price.
-
Other factors that can affect your overall pricing include:
-
Sizes: 2X is $2 more, 3X - $3, 4X - $4 and so on depending on the sizes available.
-
Adding individual names or numbers to your items will increase the per item pricing.
-
Rush fees - Production times start after payment is received and art is approved, anything less than 10 business days will require a rush fee to meet a specific date.
-
The color of shirts.
