# How to read quantity-tier pricing

What a published unit price can tell you, and what still needs to be confirmed in a formal quote.

Quantity-tier pricing is an early planning tool. It shows how the displayed unit price changes at defined quantity thresholds for the listed product and configuration.

## Read the threshold first

Each tier begins at a stated unit quantity. Enter the quantity you are considering and use the applicable tier as a budget reference. A tier should not be read as a promise that every option, service, or delivery destination is included.

## Illustrative example

If published tiers begin at 100 and 250 units, a request for 180 units would normally use the 100-unit tier as its initial pricing reference, unless the product page states otherwise. This example is for explanation only and does not represent a LogoPress product price.

## Check the displayed configuration

The relevant price depends on the product, selected options, and any listed adjustments. Artwork work, samples, proofs, special packaging, freight, duties, taxes, or destination requirements may be separate.

## Compare total project cost

Lower unit pricing at a larger quantity can increase the total cash commitment and storage requirement. Compare the full project quantity, useful life, and expected distribution plan instead of selecting a tier only because its unit price is lower.

## Use the quote as the commercial record

The formal quote confirms the final configuration, quantity, services, currency, validity period, delivery terms, and other project conditions. If the quantity changes materially, request a revised quote.
