Hello, I'm in the New York City area looking for some relabeling places. I bought Alstyle Apparel shirts that have the removable tag. I've been going around to get it done but either the places are saying they can't do it or the price is unreasonable. One quoted me 4 dollars, and one quoted me 2 dollars. This is for 36 shirts by the way. Is that too much? What are some normal prices for things like this?
What I do is print the label its easy and fast and a lot of my clients love that option I usually charge $1 a print. Just thought I would put that out there. Good luck with whatever way you go.
$2-$4 is much for relabeling, but for only 36 pieces?? $2-$4 is not asking for much!
It is if you're paying $72-128 for a job that should only cost $10-18.

Many places have no minimums and charge the same low price, whether it's 1 or 1,000.
I have found that the going rate is much lower than 75 cents. Not sure where you are checking.
I used to use a company that has relabeling as 1 of their services, and their prices are 25 cents or 35 cents, depending upon how the labels was re-sewn in.
That's with no minimums.
Of the other companies that I called around the country, more of them were in that range.
After placing ads in craigslist, I had no trouble finding people willing to do it for 50 cents. That's small quantities (10-20) included.

The time it takes for each piece can take up to 5 minutes each to de-seam and re-label.
That's if they don't know what they're doing!
I've seen people do several within 5 minutes, perfectly.
Have you considered a silkscreened tagless? Pick up a few sheets of photoez or stencilpro from Circuit Bridge and do your own. Screens will cost you $20 and they will last forever.
There is a company in Orange County, Ca that does a lot of relabeling for many of the major surf brands, who started the trend. To rip out one label and replace it with another under the tape is .15.
If you are in NYC, check Women's Wear daily classifieds. I haven't read the paper since my dress and blouse manufacturing days, but they used to have a section "Contract Work Wanted." Those would be factories looking for contract work.
I doubt you'll find anyone willing to do a one shot deal for just 72 or so, but if you have lots of a few hundred I bet you'll be able to find a good source.

Good luck.
Do you know the name of the company in O.C... Thanks in advance.
