About smiley captain pricing
Priced per unit; vendors typically quote against a primary quantity around 1 unit.
Why does embroidery cost more than printing?
Embroidery is priced on stitch count, so a detailed logo runs higher than a screen print. A simplified mark for embroidery often closes the gap.
Are setup fees per order?
Setup should be once per logo and decoration method. Reordering identical art should not trigger a new setup charge.
