Can anyone assist on a competitive per piece price for 20,000 shirts six colors two sides? My usual price is $6 per white s/s shirt with .75 add'l per color per side to cover ink costs. I can certainly lower the shirt costs, but should I drop ink costs? I still have to figure the staggering amount of ink i'll need to buy to be able to complete the order.

Btw...that's over 9000 lbs of shirts.

Thanks.

My guess is, $3.75 per shirt is where you would need to be. Of course as aggressive as companies are now days, that still might be a tad high. You can't really price it according to sale pricing of shirts, but if you do, you could probably go down as low as $3 per shirt.

thanks tad. with this being a 12 color shirt (6/6) i priced this about a dollar higher. if they say "no thanks, too high" maybe they'll give us the opporttunity to come in under the competition.

With an order that big I would make sure it's a legit company with a legit order before I wasted any more time on it. Others on here have posted about scams that wanted an excessive quantity of tees. They send you a check that you cash that is worthless, but you don't find out until it's too late. I hope this is a real customer and not someone yanking your chain, because that is really annoying to say the least.
