Card Tin: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $1.30 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.26 at volume, on a typical 21-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point, not a binding quote. Your spec and quantity set the final price.

What moves the price
For card tin, the drivers are tinplate, food-safe lining, child-resistant lid, tamper-evident, stackable, tin diameter, lid fit, coating — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Real supplier pricing for tins is sparse, but published wholesale quotes show slide tins around $0.25-$0.90 EXW at 500+ units and branded tins starting around $0.87 per unit at low MOQ, while adjacent container suppliers show inserts and custom print pushing costs upward. The biggest price movers are lid style and child-resistance, custom printing/coating, embossing, and whether the card insert/window is part of the tin build or a separate assembly. The most realistic routes are US-facing packaging wholesalers for stocked or lightly customized tins, or factory-direct import quotes for higher volumes where landed cost can approach the low end of the published ranges
