Respect to the geniuses that are able to start/maintain/sell their business. I don't have the brain capacity to do that. I'm one of those "tell me what to do and I'll do it" employee lol.

I sell a one sided shirt for between $22 and $24 which is rather high. All my equipment is payed off but a blank shirt costs me almost $7 (wholesale). Ink is SUPER expensive. Costs about $5 in ink depending on how much coverage. Shipping is $4 -$5. Then you have maintenance materials, various chemicals, electric etc. That's roughly $1 a print.
So your looking at a profit of $4 to $5 bucks a shirt. China sells shirts for less than my cost. They're crappy quality, but they're cheap. Most people dont care about the quality for a "goof" shirt.
So, basically I lose money on every shirt, but I make it up in volume! LOL!
