Thanks so much for doing this video! Im new to the tumbler business, but you answered my questions I was looking for! Thanks :) Great Video!

I’m glad I answered your questions. Since I released that video, some things have changed a little bit. A lot of the distributors that distribute through Alibaba now have US warehouses. The downside is, because they’re not going directly through Alibaba, you don’t have the Alibaba assurance. However, their prices are almost as cheap, and you can get your shipment in 3 to 6 days. That’s all I’m using now, as it’s just so convenient, and I don’t have to carry a larger inventory. Plus, I was able to use my contact when going through Alibaba for the US warehouse, so I knew I could trust her. Thanks for watching!

I order from alibaba a lot…verified, trade assurance and 97% or above delivery time is what I look for. I’ve learned in the craft world, people are funny about sharing their vendors and actually sell their vendors list.
@industrialfringe953 Жыл бұрын
Yes! Verified, Trade Assurance great on time delivery, and I also look for the amount of time they’ve been in business. I feel better when they’ve been around for a little while! I cannot BELIEVE people actually share their vendor lists! That’s just crazy! Thanks for watching!

When you are making a larger quantity of tumblers, do you use your press for them? Do you think you could heat more per hour with your convection oven?
@industrialfringe9532 жыл бұрын
Absolutely, I could heat more per hour by using the oven! For me, though, I’ve found a good routine with the press and like not having to add the time and cost for shrink wrap or additional taping. (Some people can get great results in an oven without additional tape or shrink wrap. I am not one of those people!) Currently I’m only using the oven for the bullet tumblers and a couple of odds and ends Dollar tree tests. Thanks for watching!

Hi! Thanks for sharing all this information with us, and I hope one of these days I'll be able to purchase larger quantities from Alibaba! I saw a previous video that you had purchased sublimation mugs from Heat Press Nation before. I recently purchased their Sublicraft mugs, but the mugs I received had a faint, dull yellowish discoloration on the top and bottom of the handles. The rest of the mug was a shiny bright white. Have you had this issue before with HPN or any other suppliers with sublimation mugs? I contacted HPN, but they told me that the very faint yellow is common, and it is not a manufacturing flaw. Unfortunately, they will not pay for return shipping. Thanks in advance! 😢😢😢
@industrialfringe9532 жыл бұрын
Marie, I have never heard of this! I get SubliCraft mugs from HPN, and I’ve never noticed a discoloration on the mugs, handles or elsewhere. Most of my designs are black text on solid white mugs, and I’m sure I would notice a discoloration. I haven’t. Did you talk with someone or communicate through email?

I couldn't find on the supplier's (Alibaba web) the 20 OZ skinny tumblers for the price you mention on this video. 11:16 time you said $2.60 each? I may be looking at the wrong one. : /
@industrialfringe9532 жыл бұрын
Hey, Jessica! The price is before shipping. You have to add about $1.50 per tumbler for shipping. Search the company I mention, then contact them and ask for a quote. At the price differences some of the suppliers are offering in the US warehouses, I’ve actually been ordering from there lately. It’s a few cents more, but it’s super fast shipping and I don’t have to order as many all at once! If you’d like more info, just join the Facebook group!

Do you recommend the rubber bottoms? I didn’t get them with my order. Should I invest in them?
@industrialfringe9532 жыл бұрын
Often times case purchases of tumblers don’t include rubber bottoms. I try my best to include them, as I just think it adds a nice touch (and helps me justify charging a premium!). I happened to order 300 extra the last time I ordered directly from China so when I buy from the Alibaba US warehouses (that often don’t include rubber bottoms), I can still include them.
