The buyer requested separate figures for the sample per design, any setup fee, production cost for 25 pieces per design, custom sweatband or inner tape, custom hang tags, shipping to the destination and the total cost of the 100-piece trial order.
The buyer did not want one combined number
The inquiry asked for the quotation to separate sample cost from setup cost and production cost. The buyer also asked for custom sweatband or inner tape and custom hang tags to appear as their own items rather than being hidden inside a single unit price.
Shipping was requested as a separate line
The buyer included shipping to the destination as a separate cost request and wanted the total trial-order cost shown clearly before moving forward. The source record does not provide the final freight answer or a universal shipping formula.
Why this is useful for first-order planning
This project shows the information a buyer wanted in order to compare development cost with production cost. It does not establish Caps Mill's permanent fee structure; it records a practical quotation format requested during a first trial order.
Project Evidence
This page is based on anonymized B2B custom-cap inquiry records. Customer and brand identities, contact information, addresses, prices, order identifiers and other sensitive commercial details were removed. Where a source records only a buyer question, this page does not invent the supplier's answer.
