We have a number of licensees who specialize in promotional products. Below is outlined the step-by-step guide for purchasing promotional items. Custom items may take 4-6 weeks to manufacture, so please take that into consideration. Once you determine what you want to order and who you want to work with to produce your items don't forget to fill out the 商品订购表格.

Pricing is highly dependent on quantity; depending on the item, you may pay far less per item when buying 1,000, 而不是250. Take these steps to ensure you get the best price:
- Contact at least three different licensed vendors to ask for pricing.
- Be sure to ask about shipping charges, 设置费用, 冲费, low-minimum fees and charges for additional imprint colors. (An item's price typically includes printing with one color, with each additional color incurring an extra fee.)
- Keep in mind the variables affecting a product's price. 与服装, 例如, the cost of embroidering is calculated by stitch count, not by the number of colors, and black T-shirts cost more, XXL衬衫也一样.
- Prices from licensed vendors are frequently lower than those listed in a catalog or web site; be sure to call to confirm pricing.
When choosing a vendor, check our list of licensed vendors to ensure the company is authorized to sell products with the Idaho name. You should be comfortable not only with the company's pricing, but also with the level of customer service and ability to deliver the product on time.
Be sure to ask for a sample of the product you intend to buy - you want to make sure you get what you're expecting; vendors will typically provide a sample upon request. It is especially important to request samples of T-shirts and golf shirts because of the number of variables affecting the price, such as whether a shirt is 100 percent cotton or 50 percent cotton/50 percent polyester.
