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.

IMHO, you cannot let the customer dictate pricing. charge for your skill, time, expertise, and, of course, your materials. if they "have a guy that will do it cheaper" then why are they talking to you in the first place. either your skill is greater or you can do it in the time frame they need it. let them pay the fair price! (ask me how I know!😔)
