1217541 2011-07-18 12:07:00 I've wanted to get a couple of shirts printed, but the only places I know are either online in the US and as a result useless due to shipping, or in henderson mall (ie logo land and that rapper looking place next to it, both of which can do it for around 40 bucks a shirt)

Does anyone know either online places or places in auckland that can do prints? If so, any idea what prices are like?

cheers as usual guys :)

The Warehouse Stationary would probably make a good start.

Warehouse Stationery do have them. Just print them off on an Injet printer and iron them on. I have also seen them in Harvey Normans.

1217547 2011-07-19 05:34:00 Might have to look into them once I get a colour printer then. (hah). But no, really, I could print em at uni or WHS. In fact, WHS would probably be cheaper. 8ftmetalhaed (14526)
1217548 2011-07-20 14:19:00 To my dismay, none of the printing places I rang this morning had inkjet printers, and the one place that did wouldn't let me use my own paper.
WHS didn't have laser paper, and a cartridge for my printer would have been 40-50 dollars.

Instead I just took an image to logo land, picked a shirt and had it made in an hour for $30.

Here's the result. Assuming bbcode works here

Isn't inkjet printing water soluble? I seem to remember it speading everywhere once when a page copped a few large drops of rain? Come to think of it I made some kitchen labels for Mrs T and they lasted about the same lifespan as a sugar cube in a spa pool .

OK for one-off use I guess .
