    Pricing

    I know this is a bit of a contentious issue, but as I've been out of this market for a few years, I'm struggling to come to terms
    with pricing - bearing in mind the time taken in preparation, design and production and the cost of supplies - which is quite a
    bit higher here in Spain than in the U.K. Added to this the Spanish are tight-fisted and we have the highest unemployment
    in Europe around here - so perhaps SWMBO is right when she said I need my bumps feeling starting this in the present economic
    climate.

    I'm trying to buy as much stuff as I can in the U.K., but the problem is the shipping which then whacks the price up, so it's a bit of a catch 22 situation.

    Would anyone mind sharing with me a rough idea of their charges to a small gardening company for, say, 20 Mugs with full wrap print. Also Polo shirts, front pocket and central back print (vinyl not subbed) - say 20 of those.

    Also, similar items as one-offs to the general pùblic.

    I'm not asking anyone to give away any secrets - just a guide will be fine.

    Your help would be much appreciated

    Gracias in advance

    hasta banana

    Re: Pricing

    I've got a repeat order of 20 mugs at a time for a local charitable organisation that is close to my heart, and I only charge them £2.50 per mug, which they then sell on at £5-6, and it's a full wrap round design with 16 images on.

    And one off mugs I sell at between £5-6, depending on if I've designed them or if it's a custom design.

    I've not done polo's yet, but I sell tshirts anywhere between £10 and £15, again, dependant on if subli or vinyl.

    Hope that helps :)

    Re: Pricing

    Thanks for that as well Kaz -
    There's a charity organisation that I'm looking at doing work for - animals, of course, but the problem is I'm having to pay nearly 3 quid (no pound symbol on my Spanish keyboard 8-) ) for the mugs alone with the carriage costs. That's what I'm up against.

    Re: Pricing

    Ouch re delivery costs. We could ship 72 mugs down to you for under £30 and 144 mugs for under £40. That should save you quote a bit on your buy price.

    Re: Pricing

    Martin,

    Thanks for that - I actually e-mailed you for a quote for that some weeks ago, but "no answer came the stern reply"

    I bought some from someone else - the result was the mugs I posted about last week - not dishwasher proof.

    I'll get back to you on this - I can now re-price them and maybe get the job after all.

    Thanks again

    Lee

    Sorry for not replying Lee - I don't recall seeing the email. Just remember to add vat to the figures I've quoted above.

    Wow! Thats a lot you pay for mugs! Our white mugs are 95p each and to ship 72 mugs to Spain would be £20.00

    If I can help further, let me know :)

    What's wrong with Distiber? Looks like a good company and great choice. Always helpful as well when I speak to them. There is also another large Spanish supplier that I can't recall the name of currently. My memory ain't that good at the best of times. :shock:

    Re: Pricing

    Don't know Distiber Andrew, but I'll have a look at them, thanks.

    The main killer here are the transport costs - 2 boxes of mugs from SGM in Madrid to me - 170€ and that's for a 3 day delivery...that's 2.36€ per mug for delivery alone.
