Or some combination of it...Froggy said:We currently do all our screen printing but we've been thinking about "out-sourcing" some of the more complex work and so I've been trying to figure out what are "good" prices for customer screen-printing. For example how much would you expect to pay for 2-4 color plastisol print when ordering quantities of 6+ dozen? I know the costs of the shirts but would like to get an idea of what a resonsable rate is for the printing, that is the cost beyond the shirt.
Also anybody know of any good resources for finding screen printers, I prefer local but can't seem to find much.
You can try the boards at http://boards.screenprinters.net , you could try a google search for screen printing or custom t-shirts. Once you have 15 posts, you could post a SERVICE REQUEST in the classifieds here.Also anybody know of any good resources for finding screen printers
If you're looking for local ones, might as well browse through your yellow pages (under "screen printing" or "t-shirts"); there will probably be several in your area.Froggy said:Also anybody know of any good resources for finding screen printers, I prefer local but can't seem to find much.
Yes of course, but I won't know anything about them. I'd prefer to go with someone that is known to be reliable etc then just cold calling screen printers and see if they sound "nice".Twinge said:If you're looking for local ones, might as well browse through your yellow pages (under "screen printing" or "t-shirts"); there will probably be several in your area.
Since many of our members are printers (and a lot of printers read the forums that aren't members), we don't do printer "recommendations" in this forum (to avoid self promotion and spam).Yes of course, but I won't know anything about them.

Richard gave a good idea of pricing in his reply above:froggy said:But I'm more interested in getting a better idea what people charge, anybody have input on that front?
I know it's only one source, but it should help with a "range"fluid said:my 2-clr on 6 doz contract would be $1.45
No flashing charges. Consider that part of the job and we flash as much as possible. Helps to keep the print crisp and clean.
Price is going to vary depending on location, competitation and quality.
I find screen print trades people all charge about the same.Froggy said:But I'm more interested in getting a better idea what people charge, anybody have input on that front?
