Well ...hm...laser-printed melted-heat-transfer works well...it is cheaper and easier ..I'll have to pull out and take pics and throw them up here...of some of my fav's...they are great examples of the durability of the method...these tshirts of mine ..worn daily from april to october over the last 7 years ... and the work STILL looks good..a little beaten..a little worn...but even still...after 7 years of abuse...not bad at all...so yeah I can vouch for the process ..just gotta do the pics.

Price wise...depending on..
A- the size, complexity and colours involved in the design(s)...that equates to cost. ie- some may wish black and white, some may wish colour, some may wish 8"x8" or larger size-ish design...others may wish a left-breast logo/ design.
and again it depends...black and white shows best on lighter or white colour...colour shows best on lighter or white colour.
Mid grey even works...
Darks are difficult...Black is very difficult for bound colours to vibrantly show on ..
And of course it depends on what t-shirt sizes and colours I readily have to hand..
I may have the size but not the colour ..may have the colour but not the size...necessitating possible specific purchases to facilitate the individual needs.


B- just how many people wish a shirt. Throw out a poll not just for "how many want a shirt"
but also "what sizes" what colours" (please avoid black eh? don't make life more "fun" for me. )... what kind of design(s) ...ie central chest ...left breast.. black and white...colour..blah-blah-blah...all that fun stuff...but keep it simple though.

C- requisite supplies ...
shirts (I have some...but I'm sure what leftover stock won't accommodate everyone interested)
inkx ..
plastix ..
those last two will definitely be the biggest chunk of money..but even still....give me til Thursday at least to do some pricing locally for the supplies I would need for the materials for my equipment...
Then I can do an exact breakdown of cost to the penny.
excluding shipping..(that is just too wide a variable). and then I'll throw the resulting number at the boys upstairs and they can put their needed ducat (do people still use the term "ducat" ? ) and a final tag laid out for a shirt.
I can't imagine a shirt will run over 30 euros ...
Today is just about done...let me do my thing tomorrow and hunt around locally for what I'd need and price it all.
in the mean...I'll pull out those t-shirts that I did work on...so you can see an example of the longevity and the merit of the process.
