In custom screenprinting price is always based on quantity and I will do my best to explain why. I would like to take an example of an order that we just completed to discuss the reasoning behind this.

We just completed an order that was for 500 shirts with a 2 color front and a 2 color back. If you refer back to some of my previous post on the printing process you will see some of what I am going to discuss in greater detail. With this order we had to develop film, burn screens, setup on press and print samples to get it ready to print. This all took about 2 hours to get it ready to print. That would have been the same on 36 shirts. We are able to split that cost across 500 shirts rather than 36. The printing is actually less time consuming on most orders than the prep work to get it to press. Just think on that 500 shirts we completed all the printing in about 3 hours and it had 1000 prints. This would give us a total of 5 hours on that job. On the 36 shirts we would have about 30 minutes in printing. So 464 more shirts only took 2.5 hours more to complete.

I think now that you see how much time goes into the setup you will understand the quantity pricing schedule. If not please give me a call personally and we can discuss, that’s what I love to do anyway.

Bender Apparel Graphics has the capability to print up to a 16 inch full back. This size however doesn’t work will on small shirts. We usually print a full back at 12 inches. 12 inches gives you a good print area for a normal logo. The 16 inch logos are usually used for printing large designs seen in nascar and things like that. 99% of our full back prints are printed at that 12 inch size and we rarely have any complaint about the sizing.

Custom screen printed t shirts is one of the best ways to advertise. Just the other day I was at my chiropractor and he was asking about my business. He wanted to know how much it was to make up some custom t-shirts for him to give away to all of his customers. When I told him we could print up 300 custom printed tees for under $1200.00 he about hit the floor. When you think about how many people you can have your logo in front of for that amount of money it is a no brainer. One thing to keep in mind when printing custom t-shirts is to print advertising on the back. I caught myself the other day trying to read a persons t-shirt that was printed on the front and felt very awkward. I believe people are very interested in what is on a custom screenprinted t shirt, but would rather read the back because no one will ever know they are reading it.

I hope this helps you in your marketing ideas. Just remember that custom screenprinted t shirts is a cheap and easy way to reach people that you can’t reach with any other media.
