Procurement playbook
What moves the price
- Where your quantity sits against the 50/1000 break points (just under a break is the expensive place to be)
- Materials and specification of the item
- Quantity and where it falls against a vendor's price breaks
- Finishing, customization, or add-on services
Check before signing
- Setup or one-time fees charged per unit or repeated on reorders
- A specification quietly changed from what you asked for
- Rush surcharges applied to a standard timeline
- Line items bundled into a single total so individual prices can't be compared
Negotiation levers
- Standardize the specification so vendors quote like-for-like
- Consolidate volume or designs to share fixed costs
- Offer schedule flexibility in exchange for a better rate
About business cards standard glossy 1000 qty pricing
Priced per unit with quantity breaks. Vendors quote steps at 50 / 1000 units, and the per-unit rate drops at each break.
Why do two quotes for the same item differ so much?
Usually a specification or finishing difference, not the core work. Ask both vendors to quote the identical spec and the gap normally narrows.
Tracked variants
The same product family is tracked in 3×4, 2.5×2.5, 3.5×2. Quotes are NOT interchangeable across variants, so match the spec before comparing.
