DTG fulfilment masterlist?

There are many independent fulfillment services. It is doubtful if you will get pricing info from them as it is a competitive business. Some are are more expensive than the big boys, some are less. Price is not the only criteria in the mix, turn-around, quality, making the vendor look good, customer service, ability to adapt on the run, communication availability, quick correction for mistakes and possibly many other small matters that make a warmer more comfortable relationship between customer, vendor and supplier.
It is like trying to compare the experience buying a lawnmower from Walmart and expecting quick serves on repair and purchasing from a small business that services what it sells and to whom your business is important.

This is sooo true. For over a year now, I've been searching for that "good fit" and it's not easy to find. The "good fit" for me is a DTG printer and fulfillment service that takes pride in their work and has an appreciation for the costs that their customer has to incur to run a business as well. While I do believe that you pay for what you get, as a result, I won't buy or sell junk. It's not worth being in business if you have to decide between either cost or quality of workmanship. Unfortunately, I've yet to find that middle ground where I can get a quality product and still afford to stay in business. For me, you only get one chance to make a good impression. That applies to both sides of the equation. The bottom line is, we are all customers, but it is that end user that keeps us all fed.

Btw, if anyone has some experience with a printer that takes pride in what he does, is not trying to retire early and is willing to foster a solid working relationship with their customers, please hit me up on pm and point me in the right direction. I will be eternally grateful.
