Title: Cheap vs Cheap
Post by: 3Deep on April 21, 2015, 03:29:56 PM
Ok had a customer come in looking for shirt's one of there partners had already came in for pricing, then they say if I know my partner they ask for cheap shirts, we don't won't cheap shirts, but in the same sentence ask for cheap v-neck shirts WTF!!.  People don't realize the dumb stuff they say when trying to get a price on shirts and say that chit with a straight face ???

I tell people the shirt is always the cheapest part to the equation. My knowledge and time to decorate it is the expensive part.  There's no such thing as a "cheaper shirt", just people willing to sell their knowledge a little lower than the next guy....

I tell 'em they're all cheap shirts, some just cost more than others! (look at AA sometimes to see that price indicates popularity rather than quality)

The American Apparel pricing is mostly based on the USA manufacturing than popularity, even the USA-made tees that we buy from no name brands end up in that same pricing tier. 

Homer, I like that description, it's totally true and a good way to describe it!

We never sell on shirt price anyway, we sell what Jay said our knowledge and skill, hell I told my wife today we should run an ad saying Free T-shirts all you pay for is the setup and printing ;D
