For 32 I would be at $125 each full color, two sides, 16 oz, pole pocket top and bottom.
What, did he leave on a bad note????

yeah he just came in one morning and split.... thanks for the input !!!!!

Hope that DOES NOT include the hangers!! Tell the customer there was a mess up and to take it up with the salesman, unless they are a good customer. Otherwise you are going to be stuck at that price. They could spead the word on the price and you will be stuck explaining this for a long time!!!

Yeah... apprently this is our last job with them anyways so hopefully no one else will come back at that price..... that guy would sell his kid for some cheap commission!! lol

I have known salespeople who get their rocks off, just making the sale. Profits be damned.

Out source them to one of the bigger wholesale guys and you can still make some money on them without much more than a few emails/phone calls.

Why would you let him? Confused as how you would let a salesman do this to you. Do they get 100% free reign to throw any price out there they want? In my opinion that's a quarter of market value, and you're still going through with the job?

you're literally losing $ by wasting your time on this job. Why make your customer happy if you already admitted they're not buying from you again?
