Tank Top: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.85 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.78 at volume, on a typical 25-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.
Median price by order quantity
| Order size | Median /unit |
|---|---|
| 500–999 units | $0.85 |
| 1,000–4,999 units | $0.78 |
What moves the price
For tank top, the drivers are size run, fabric weight, blend, print method, color count — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
For a mid-range custom tank, the biggest cost drivers are fabric weight and blend, then decoration complexity and color count; one supplier specifically notes that screen print adds about $0.60–$2.20 per piece by color count and embroidery adds $1.50–$4.00 per piece. Factory-direct China quotes for 200gsm combed-cotton rib tanks start around $0.60–$1.10 FOB at 500+ units, while US-facing wholesale listings for blank or lightly decorated tanks are much higher because they usually reflect branded blanks, domestic warehousing, or smaller pack quantities. Realistic routes are factory-direct OEM/ODM for the lowest landed cost, or US wholesale/distributor channels if speed and low MOQ matter more than unit price
