Amazon's referral fee for apparel is tiered by price, and at $34.99 the Gildan 18000 Crewneck Sweatshirt 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 Gildan 18000 sweatshirt for $19.17 + $5.99 shipping, and Printify from $17.66 + $7.39; most sellers list it between $29.99 and $39.99.
