Hi all.
Yesterday I had a blonde/Irish/Senior/female moment (take your pick) and ordered some t-shirts, they came in packs of five, so I order 10 packs of 5 (I thought) at what was a fantastic price (I thought) order arrives today and I have ordered 10 t-shirts at over £4 each, that's with the discount on here. Yea I know...one of those newby numpties :biggrin:

I've been asked to print up 40 shirts for a pub music festival to be sold to raise some money for a local charity so as I'm already doing them at a huge discount I need to source some white t-shirts at a much more reasonable price than £4 each. I have found an online (not ebay) supplier doing them for £2 each, is that about right or can anyone recommend a better deal, and yes I have scoured the forum for the past hour and a half looking but with no luck. Gutted at my expensive cockup but lesson learned.
Many thanks in advance

Do the shirts have to be sublimation? What design are you putting onto them?

Hi Justi.
Yes sublimation, its a two colour large graphic on the front. Basically the music festival logo in red and the date in black.

I'll move this into general dye sub section as this section only reaches premium members :-)

Hi Sptizy

A sublimation GILDAN tee shirt is £1.75 from Ralawise plus VAT and Delivery.

I have no idea how good they are because I do not sublimate tee's (although I am tempted to get a few in and see). If you want and as its for a charity I am happy to order on my account and then you can collect them from my house (not sure where you live but we are in the same town).

Like I say, I have no idea how good the Gildan's are and perhaps if you have time on the job then post a thread asking for people's opinon on them

Let me know if you need any help.

Kind regards

Simon
