subject: Uncovering True Wholesale Bulk Apparel for Selling at Flea Markets [print this page] When I first got interested in the t-shirts wholesale enterprise, I thought that it will be almost impossible to succeed. You see, there were already so many individuals concerned with t-shirt display screen printing. How could you make a distinct segment in a market where the products were really easy to make, and there were already so many well-established people. At the time, I have to confess, I was a bit naive. I really didn't know all that a lot about the best way the clothes wholesale enterprise works.
First of all I think we need to establish what type of clothing you are looking for. Supply and demand merely don't apply to clothes, until you might be working with costly and laborious-to-find t-shirts wholesale. It is all about buzz. There are a few questions that will tell you a lot about the type of wholesaler you are looking for: If the t-shirts wholesale are blank, then are you willing to buy in bulk? When starting a clothing company, having t-shirts printed or outfitting an existing group, you should buy in bulk. This is a no brainer but if you are going to buy more merchandise you will always get the supplier to give you a better price..
Some companies will automatically give better prices according to the dollar amount purchased, or the quantity purchased. I believe that a company who allows the dollar amount to affect the discount is the better option. There are also the brick and mortar stores that you could buy from. The pros and cons of these stores are about the same for any industry. You can go in and see the product. Feel it, try it on and of course go home with it the same day. They have to make their lease or mortgage payment, pay their employees and stock their shelves. When you add advertising and utilities, it is almost impossible with them to compete with online stores, let alone online wholesale stores.
I have heard some people talking about the great price on t-shirts wholesale they saw at one of those big-box retailers. The prices were about $7 per shirt. This is about $5 more per piece than you will find online. I would agree with these people. Look for FREE SHIPPING. This is not an unreasonable request. Some clothing suppliers do not offer free shipping ever on t-shirts wholesale. The problem is that they get free shipping from the manufacturer or supplier if the order is over a specified dollar value. Why are they not passing that on to you? I will let you answer that question. They have to ship it to themselves, so it can be altered, and then to you when it is done. Never should you be charged for both of the shipping.
If you are going to have your clothing screen printed or embroidered, here are some suggestions. You should give yourself a minimum a two-week turn around period. You can usually get a better price on t-shirts wholesale from an online store than a screen-printing and embroidery shop. There should not be a delay when buying online. Many online merchants will ship directly to the company you have chosen to do the work. Returns and exchanges and not handled like in a brick and mortar fashion. Make sure that you are happy with the size, color, quantity and model before placing your order. Or you will be subjected to a restocking fee and return shipping costs. You may not get to see the actual t-shirts or try them on. However if you are buying a brand that you are familiar with the only concern is size and color, but with color and sizing charts this can be less of a concern.
