The Daily Tee

If You Sell Tees more than $30, You are Capitalist

by Rangga on December 10th, 2007

Quoted from A-OK MART’s FAQ page

Why don’t you charge $30.00+ for your tees?

I guess I’m just not a full blown capitalist quite yet…jokes. Really I believe you get what you pay for. As production costs rise my prices might have to match that, but for now I’d like to offer my product at a very middle of the road price point.

Oh no it’s not a joke — it’s sarcasm :) But seriously (no joke), A-OK MART has two “sword” tee shirt for Men and Women; sold for $20 “only”.

    If you take a look at the comments that most of the side deals on shirt.Woot get then anything above $15 for a tee is extortionately expensive apparently…

    price of a shirt i believe depends on WHO (or how many)you are paying when you make the profit.

    Andy - yeah you’re right, there are even people who sell as low as $5 bucks (and make $20 and even $15 sound like too much)

    Justin - after all, pricing matter (whether it’s too expensive or cheap) is a very subjective, and personal matter ;)

    very true… i work for a company that has a retail of 14.99 and a wholesale vaule of 7.50 to 8.50 - alot of royalties involved… artist, celeb name used, sales etc.. just depends on how much you actually get ..

    glad my silly faq started a little bit of discussion ha!

    also, any orders before december is out get a 2nd tee for free (same size/opposite style of what you ordered).

    […] strongly agree with The Daily Tee’s title post “If You Sell Tees more than $30, You are Capitalist” and would even edit the title from $30 to $24 (more than) which would apply to a high […]

    Isn’t anyone who sells t-shirt for monetary gain a capitalist?
