Please list any wholesalers who offer case pricing on individual pieces. Some companies such as Bodek and Rhodes or Broder Bros. make you purchase an entire case to get a competitive quote. This thread is for those WHO DON'T.

The List:
SanMar
S&S Activewear
TSC Apparel (online orders only)

I know S&S offers case pricing regardless of quantity ordered if you order online.

S&S Activewear

I would not do business with any company that did not give me case pricing on my shirts. Even if I am buying one shirt. Add Delta to the list and Staton.

I don't mean to highjack this thread but don't shipping fees make buying a couple of shirts at wholesale unpractical for the purchaser?

I use Sanmar and Heritage and they both offer case pricing on any quantity.

Not necessarily.

I went ahead and placed an order for 15 shirts of mixed brand (FOTL / Hanes), color (White, Black, and Heather) and size (S,M,L) with S&S today as a sample pack to help me choose a definite shirt.

It came to only ~ $33. Not bad for 15 shirts and shipping.

Not really, when you just need a couple of shirts for samples to see if that's the shirt you'll be using, then shipping fees are a necessary evil

Also, sometimes you just need 10 shirts instead of 150, so the shipping fees don't really add up to much when you're still getting wholesale prices.

Can someone please explain to this newbie what exactly is meant by...

Case Pricing?

What are the benefits to this?

Thanks.

He sort of explained it in his first post.

Basically, with some wholesalers, in order to get the best pricing, you have to buy a "case" of the same style, same size, same color. Some wholesalers require you to buy at least 72 pieces of the same style to get the best "case" pricing. If you order one piece, the pricing will be much higher, if you order a dozen of the same style/size/color, the pricing will be lower than one piece, but higher than a case.

There is a trend with some of the wholesalers, like SanMar, to offer competitive "case" pricing on all your orders whether you buy 1 piece or 100 pieces.

Oh cool, thanks for the clarification.

I get Kavio at case prices for samples on up. I buy through a rep...not sure if they give you the case price if you buy directly from them.

Thanks Rodney for showing me this thread.

blankshirtstore.com does case prices, they only are online as far as I know and they only have contact through email.

What are you paying for 6.1 oz. tees at case price?
