Your brand has a very clean and compelling aesthetic.\n\nI understand you'd like to begin with the sampling stage and get the development costs first. This is a standard part of the process.

For example, the price of a sample is directly linked to the final bulk production price. Without this context, we can't provide the figures you need.\n\nTo provide you with an accurate analysis for your project, I need the following details regarding the potential production order:\n\n1.  **Quantities**: What is the planned quantity for each of the four styles?\n2.  **Timeline**: What is your desired delivery date for the final production run?\n3.  **Target Price**: What is your target production price per style, indicated separately for each style?\n\nOnce I have these details, I can better assess your project and guide you on the next steps.",

It's completely understandable that you need to gauge market response before committing to larger volumes.\n\nUnfortunately, our operational structure and agreements with our material suppliers are specifically designed for production runs starting at 200 units per style. Because of this, our technical team is unable to generate a meaningful or accurate cost analysis for quantities below this threshold. Any pricing we provided would simply not be representative of a real production scenario with us.\n\nWe can only proceed with a formal evaluation if you decide to base the project on the 200-unit minimum per style.\n\nI understand this might not be the answer you were hoping for, but we believe in being transparent from the start. Should you decide that you can move forward with our minimums, we would be delighted to pick up where we left off and analyze your designs.",
