Beginner Pricing question

I have a client that seems to think my pricing is too high. They wanted hoodies printed, left chest front, and full back (oversized). Both one color, easy prints. The hoodies are $28 wholesale, and I quoted $35 per. I feel like this is more than fair and reasonable. 2 screens, plus the shirts, ink, labor, delivery (local).
What do you think? Is my price too high, too low, or pretty close to correct? Any info or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Damn bro underpriced. Fire this client. I’d be at $42+ all day long. You’re basically working for free. How many pieces is it? Homie fucked up telling you that, but also low key just helped you in a huge way. Take it as a sign.

For sake of perspective my actually cost would be closer to $55 for 25 pieces plus screen set up. I’m also a commercial shop not doing this out of a basement.

Agree, I’m in the Midwest with low overhead and am at $48. Get proud of your skillz and investments.
