lol...I probably should've said that. How many shirts should order if I'm just starting out? I don't want to many in the event that my business tanks but I don't want to order too little either.

Again, are you going to a fair? or just online? Just need samples? There are so many variables.

One tidbit that has helped me decide what inventory to carry:

Shirt orders come overnight ! If I run out of xlarge, sand, longsleeve t-shirts on Monday, I can have more by Wednesday, etc.

I'd like a suggestion too!

I am going to be selling T-Shirts to the EMS crowd (Paramedics, EMTs, etc...)... offer two colors (white and ash grey)... and offer sizes S thru 4x.

I will be selling from a website and via eBay and doing a "print on demand".

I figure the Ash Grey will sell 2-1 over the white... just not sure what percentage of each shirt size I should order.

Suggestions?

Brett

Read threw some of the threads about how to figure out the size breakdowns

http://www.t-shirtforums.com/tags/tshirt-sizes/
http://www.t-shirtforums.com/tags/sizes/

That will give you some great suggestions and tips about what sizes are popular.

Well online seems like my best choice right now.
