i'm wondering if this is possible and if anyone has tried it and willing to share their experiences.
If you are selling to retail stores, you would get better pricing by going to a screen printer that's setup for running larger orders that a retail store would want.

Although cafepress has "bulk" pricing, it doesn't compare to the pricing you'd get by going to a screen printer or even a digital printer that specializes in bulk orders.

But yes, I've read stories of people going from a cafepress shop and selling in a retail store.
