Do you offer bulk discounts?
Yes, built into the price rather than bolted on: the per-piece price falls continuously as the quantity rises, because setup spreads thinner across more pieces and our margin narrows deliberately at volume. There is no coupon and no cliff — 199 pieces never costs more in total than 200 — and the curve is steepest between 50 and about 200 pieces.
The curve on two garments, from the calculator
| Quantity | 200 gsm tee, left-chest DTF | 500 gsm hoodie, one-colour chest screen print |
|---|---|---|
| 50 | ≈ $12.05 | ≈ $32.40 |
| 100 | ≈ $11.60 | ≈ $30.85 |
| 200 | ≈ $11.10 | ≈ $29.50 |
| 500 | ≈ $10.50 | ≈ $27.80 |
| 1,000 | ≈ $10.05 | ≈ $26.50 |
How to get the most from it
Order one style in one run rather than the same style twice. Two runs of 50 cost more than one run of 100 because the setup is paid twice and each run sits at the top of the curve. If you are close to a threshold — 90 pieces, say — ask for the price at 100; the extra pieces often cost less than the saving on the rest. And build a range on a small number of blanks: colourways of one garment share its pattern, and reorders carry no setup.
What does not get cheaper with quantity
Custom dye lots have a minimum of 300 pieces and are priced by the lot, not the curve. Shipping falls per piece as cartons fill but is quoted by weight. Duties are a percentage and do not fall at all. Everything else — the blank, the decoration, the labels, the packing — sits on the curve.
Related questions
- Is there a discount code?
- No. The curve is the discount, and the calculator shows it live at any quantity.
- Where is the curve steepest?
- Between 50 and about 200 pieces. It continues above that, more gently.
- Do reorders get a discount?
- They carry no setup, which usually makes them cheaper per piece than the first order at the same quantity.
- Can I get wholesale pricing?
- Ask with a twelve-month quantity in mind. Pricing at volume is a conversation, and we would rather have it up front.
