Default Providing T-shirt to the Printing Service: any advantage?

Hello! Will providing t-shirts to the printing service reduce the overall cost of their service?

I could buy t-shirts from wholesalers, but I'm sure the printing services get good deal from their providers too. So, if I bring in shirts, will it be cheaper for me? (not only financially, but from a practical point of view).

Any reply is greatly appreciated. thanx in advance!

Alex, it depend on how large your orders are. Were a contract printer and buy our Gildan white 100% cotton 6.1 oz at $1,00 each. Get a quote both ways and see, Hope it helps, John

Stephanie, I should have said that we buy 30,000 at a time. Broder Bros. or Staton Wholesale they both carry Gildan.
