Depends on what kind of shirts and what the market is. There definitely isn't a 'one price fits all' answer.

Try looking at other christian based t-shirt sites and see what they are selling their long sleeve t-shirts at.

Just do a google (or froogle) search for christian long sleeve t-shirt and you'll be able to get a good price variance.

Are you talking about screen prints or transfers?

That depends on so many factors. Give us more to go on! I sell long sleeve Ts for $32, but Bono can sell SHORT sleeve Ts for $40+ and actually get lots of people to buy it! A good tip is to double your cost for wholesale, and double that again for resale value.

You should have no trouble bumping them up. We sell shortsleeves (screenprinted) for $15, and the occasional longsleeve that rolls through the door (we don't get many) we usually sell for anywhere from $22 to $30, depending on the vendor.

For pricing for resale
Say my cost is 4 dollars
Does that mean I should beable to sell that shirt for 16 dollars??

I am selling baby onesies short and long sleeve. Heat pressed transfers using durabrite ink and super soft transfer paper. What does everyone think I should charge for those?

It just depends on what your basic costs are that relate to selling the shirt, and what your competitors are asking. In our store a shirt costing 4.00 would sale between 9.99 and 12.99, but you may be able to set your markup more or less considering. Do you know how much your competitors are setting similar styles for currently??
