Banner: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $4.20 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $1.40 at volume, on a typical 2-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.
Median price by order quantity

| 5,000–9,999 units | $2.80 |
| 10,000–24,999 units | $2.30 |
| 25,000–99,999 units | $1.90 |
| 100,000+ units | $1.40 |
What moves the price
For banner, the drivers are burnout residue, material, print resolution, green strength, compatibility with investment casting, page count, binding, carbon copy — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
For custom printed banners, the biggest price drivers are square footage, substrate (13oz vinyl, 18oz vinyl, mesh, or fabric), single- versus double-sided printing, and finishing such as hemming, grommets, and banner stands. Wholesale trade suppliers commonly quote by square foot rather than by unit, while retail-facing calculators and bulk programs show steep per-unit drops as quantity rises; print-on-demand trade shops and reseller programs are the most realistic routes for 500-25,000 units, while very large runs usually move to contract large-format printers or import-equivalent sourcing.
