How would getting the shirts done in the UK make it cheaper? There are a lot of screen printing houses here in Detroit that are really good. With the exchange rate, its cheaper to get them done here in Detroit.
And for Kent (apologies for sending that last one through with rich text, I know most the list didn't see the above), I understand that your thinking of those in Europe, I am too. A month ago, I had a clothing company from the UK contact me about outsourcing their screen printing to a company here in Detroit because of the cost difference. They will save more than 3/4 of the printing price and they get to help the Detroit economy by printing them at a Detroit Artist Community Center. They're speaking to the trade association about tariffs, and it still looks like they'll save at last 1/2. This list is about the 313 influence. I vote we do them in Detroit and in turn help benefit Detroit Artists in a Detroit Community Center. Jodie On Thu, Feb 21, 2008 at 2:14 PM, Thomas D.
