Do to unforeseen circumstances we are moving our operations to Madison, WI. We will be closed until September 1, 2026 to facilitate the moving of all of our equipment and inventory.

Once we are up and running, we will still offer the same great decorated apparel at the same amazing prices.

To show our sincerest apologies we are going to offer free delivery to anyone in Beaver Dam until the end of 2026.

We hope to hear from you all soon!

**💲 Ever Wonder What Actually Goes Into the Price of a Custom Printed Shirt?**

At **Dam Good Printing**, we believe in being transparent. When you're comparing quotes, make sure you're comparing the **total cost**, not just the advertised price per shirt.

Here's a real-world breakdown:

👕 **Shirt Cost**

* Economy shirt: **~$2.00**
* Premium shirt (Bella+Canvas): **~$5.50**

🎨 **Printing Cost**

* Full Front Print: **~$5.00**
* Full Back Print: **~$5.00**
* Left Chest Logo: **~$2.00**

🏭 **Shop Overhead**
Every shirt also has costs that keep the business running:

* Labor
* Electricity
* Equipment maintenance
* Insurance
* Packaging

**Average shop overhead: ~$4.00 per shirt**

That means our **true base cost** is approximately:

✅ **$13.50–$17.00 per shirt**

And that's before we make a profit.

# # Now Let's Compare Traditional Screen Printing

Many screen printers advertise a low shirt price...

**"$13 per shirt!"**

Sounds great—until you ask about the setup.

Most screen printers charge a **screen/art fee for EACH color** in your design.

Typical screen charge:
🎨 **$75 per color**

A fairly average 3-color logo means:

3 Screens × $75 = **$225 in setup charges**

For an order of **12 shirts**:

**Dam Good Printing**

* Average cost: **$17.00 per shirt**
* Total: **$204**
* ✅ Unlimited colors
* ✅ All artwork prep included
* ✅ No screen charges

**Typical Screen Printer**

* Shirt price: **$13 × 12 = $156**
* Screen charges: **+$225**
* **Total: $381**
* **Effective cost: $31.75 per shirt**
