We had a meeting on the weekend and we have decided we need to launch with Coolmax, for the quality feel it has. We are also in talks with a couple of other brands and likely we could order 20,000 initially if it all comes together this week. We may also split our order into 2 lots of 10,000 as it is very important we have enough stock for the teams that make the semi finals so an order closer to then we will know what teams should make it. We would also be really interested in placing an order for the top 4 that decides the top 2 but we would need super fast turnaround - that is for August though.
We have been quoted a Coolmax price of $1.40 from one of "those Zhejiang suppliers" and your price is the highest of all prices we have been working with so it will make it an easy decision if you get closer. Your price has to include the Rudolf chemical purchase and treatment as we really want to use their branding and have permission to use their trademarks.
Can you confirm to me your best Coolmax price with digital printing and the Rudolf treatment. (they have told me no more than 7c per item that size)?
Are the samples progressing to be sent tomorrow and arrive by Friday?
