Our main supplier in Florida (Alpha/BroderBros) has recently increased single prices on the Gildan G2000
We have a backup supplier that's still (and always has been) selling in [a more reasonable] range...
unfortunately, we haven't needed to use these guys yet (Atlantic Coast Cotton).
So before we pack up and take our multi-thousand dollar/month account from Alpha and head over to ACC...
can anyone advise on even cheaper pricing for the G200, preferably from a wholesaler on the EAST Coast?
I'm not sure what Alpha is doing, but they're a BIG company...
they should have the buying power to keep prices stable on such a cheapo, mass-produced t-shirt.
Angry.
P.S. Yes, we still buy singles regularly...too many colors and sizes to buy cases for everything.

Reason: removed wholesale pricing - vendors prefer to keep their pricing away from public places like forums
re: Gildan G2000 has gone over $3 per unit !!! huh?
I just checked and Alpha has G200 white for [lower] colors under $2.00 (sm-xlg). ?? I assume we are talking about the same 6.1 oz 100% cotton shortsleeve t-shirt?

Reason: removed specific pricing - wholesalers like to keep their specific pricing out of the public eye

If you are spending a couple of thousand a month they should be giving you case pricing on everything you order. If you are happy with them on the whole, ask them to give you case pricing on all orders. If not, try Carolina Made or Virginia T's. I get case pricing on anything I order from them. Even if it's one piece.
Good luck

I have always found Alpha singles pricing way too high. Imprints wholesale has one price only. Sanmar is another West Coast supplier with good pricing.

last I checked, Florida is on the EAST COAST!!!!! LOL!
TSC also has a distribution center in Atlanta. They have the best pricing I have found. I use Broder for emergencies because I can pick them up same day but they always cost more. I understand that some people have different pricing because of volume ... so I'm just saying this has been my experience. I usually only buy a small amount at a time.

We're just talking about blank shirts in general. If you're paying that much per shirt you really need to open a wholesale account with some shirt vendors, but most require some sort of proof that you are a retailer (resale certificate, vendor's license, tax ID, etc.).
