Anyone got an opinion on pricing a 4 color print front location on Sport Tek st350 qty of 500???
I'd be around 7.85 for that one...depends on your costs and what your market will go for. just did a couple separate orders for the st350's 2 color front and 2 color back for 12.50 but the quantity was for 75-85 per order. I only gave them that price because of repeat business.

Prolly be around $5.99 on auto. Take about an hour or less to print with 2 people. Really hard to compete against an auto with that qty but $7.99 is very reasonable in my opinion.
Very true, but I just beat out a competitor on a 500shirt order because of my print quality/original art vs. clipart they usually get and customer service. I hold their hand and dazzle them with the quality....Ka-ching! :eek:)

I would have offered it with dye sub for $5.25 with no limit on the number of colors.
I'm assuming you mean on a white st350. How do you even make money on that? The case price is $3.99 each let's say 13x19 paper I know that you use larger $.41 cents cobra ink .10 cents that leaves .75 in labor and it is labor intensive. Please drop some knowledge on me. Would really appreciate it.

I did but I think my prices were fair. Some printers in my area wanted to start at $12 a shirt.
Fair is very subjective... I find pricing questions quickly turn into a race to the bottom on here... how some people feed themselves with some of these prices is beyond me. My prices are low for my local, but ppl. Claim to be charging a fraction of what I charge. I'm not ashamed, I'm good at what I do and sometimes I feel like I'm still giving it away...

I forgot to add that I work out of my house my overhead is really low.
