Amazon's referral fee for apparel is tiered by price, and at $28.99 the Comfort Colors 1717 Garment-Dyed Tee falls in the 17% (Clothing & Accessories above $20.00) bracket — so Amazon takes 17% of your item-plus-shipping total. Right now Printful fulfills the Comfort Colors 1717 for $15.60 + $4.69 shipping, and Printify from $12.16 + $3.99; most sellers list it between $24.99 and $32.99.

Watch the $20.00 line: apparel priced at $20.00 or below is charged 10%, but one cent over and the whole total is taxed at 17% — pricing the Comfort Colors 1717 at $19.99 instead of $21.99 can leave more in your pocket than the extra $2 brings in.
