I suggest you contact Ace Transfer Company. They will be a great source for plastisol transfers, and they also custom cut vinyl too. This is a great company that is truly customer service orientented. They know if your not happy, you won't return. Good luck. ...... JB

Hi People

Personally, i felt its good to source your printing supplies from overseas as the cost price is much lower than local ones. To have quality control over your printing needs, you can first start off sourcing from more developed countries like Singapore. Quality is assured and price is lower. This in turn will increase your profit margin for your every order!

cheers

Personally, I don't think you get a lower price outsourcing just 150 sheets of transfers to some kids oversea, considered the high shipping cost. The quality control you have is almost zero. And then, which 'developed country' puts their own future at work at the age of 4?

You guys will be surprised at the kind of costings you will get if you did tried to outsource. Tell me how much you are getting your shirts for...i believe i can get it cheaper with the same quality.

I have to agree with the others on outsourcing. Keep the money in USA pockets and keep the jobs here. Sometimes saving money is not the sole purpose when making a buying decision. Read the paper...see how many jobs continue to be outsourced

I worry when someone pushes a product from a source we do not know. I know You are a new person here and I think people are going to think your here to promote.
