Check out this site.
http://www.robsp.com/Home_Page.html and click on T-Shirts.  It looks
like they can digital print a t-shirt for $13.20 in quantities of 6,
$7.85 for quantities of 24, or $5.85 for quantities of 48.  A little
higher for George's black t-shirt.

Screen printing also available but you have to buy screens at $20 X
the number of colors used plus maybe some more for "art services".

The cost of blank t-shirts is so low, I though I would check Wallmart
to see what I've been paying for regular t-shirts.  I never found
regular t-shirts, but they do have t-shirts with a picture printed on
them, $10.96 each, or $16.22 for deluxe supple soft t-shirts.  I sort
of have the impression that these are white t-shirts only.

Do you have a Walmart in Australia George?  It seems like this t-shirt
printing business is pretty wide spread, so there is probably someone
down under that does it.
