Custom Pin-Back Buttons for Yonkers, New York

251 of the 1.5 inch button at $1.42 each, 25 percent below the listed rate, is $356.42 in buttons, and flat shipping on an order that size is $19.99, so the total lands at $376.41 before tax. That is the whole sum. There is no setup line, no plate charge, no per-design fee waiting underneath it, and no second number that appears once the artwork is looked at. If you can do the multiplication, you already know what the order costs.

We put the arithmetic first on this page because the people who write to us from Westchester County usually arrive with a budget rather than a question. A small act working out what a merch table can carry does not need a quote process. It needs to know whether the pile of buttons fits inside the money it has, and then it needs to go and do something else. So here is the pricing, the one place the total can move, and the handful of things worth deciding before you upload anything.

Where the $376.41 actually comes from

Two lines, and only two. Pick the band, then multiply. That is the whole calculation. At 1.5 inch that price is $1.42, so 251 of them is $356.42. The second line is shipping, which is a flat fee set by the total number of buttons on the order. Up to 100 buttons the fee is $9.99. Up to 250 it is $14.99. Up to 500 it is $19.99. Up to 1000 it is $24.99. An order of 251 buttons sits in the $19.99 band, and $356.42 plus $19.99 is $376.41.

That is the complete structure. Nothing else is added at checkout except tax.

The single button that costs five dollars

Look again at 251. It clears the 250 mark by exactly one button, and that one button pushes the whole order out of the $14.99 shipping band and into the $19.99 band. Order 250 instead and you stay in the lower band and keep $5.00 in your pocket, while the per button price stays exactly where it was.

A growing count moves the rate band for that size first and the shipping tier second. The buttons themselves never change price. $1.89 is the 1.5 inch rate for nine of them. Nine hundred of them is $1.32 each, because three thresholds sit in between. The tiers are postage, nothing more. So when your number lands a few buttons above 100, 250, 500 or 1000, check whether trimming back to the round figure is worth more to you than the extra buttons are. Often it is. Sometimes you genuinely need the 251st and you pay the $5.00 without complaint. Either answer is fine, but it should be a decision rather than an accident.

Five sizes, and where each one steps down

The whole catalogue is round pin-back buttons in five diameters. The 1.5 inch button is $1.89. The 2.25 inch is $1.99. The 3 inch is $2.49. Full colour, printed from artwork you upload yourself. A 1 inch costs $1.49 and a 1.25 inch $1.69, which is where a large handout run usually starts.

Size is a design question more than a money question. The gap between the smallest and the largest is a dollar a button, which across a few hundred pieces is real and occasionally decisive. What matters more is what your art needs. A logo built from a single heavy shape survives at 1.5 inch. A name set in thin type, or anything with a small detail you actually want read, wants the extra surface. The 3 inch is the size people pick when the button is the merch item rather than a giveaway sitting next to one.

The far end of Westchester County

Yonkers is 26.5 miles west of the shop in a straight line, which makes it the furthest point in Westchester County we cover. Everything else we list in the county sits closer in: Mount Vernon is 3.4 miles from you, New Rochelle 6.2, and White Plains 10.0. The Bronx is 5.9 miles away, and Manorhaven, back toward the shop, is 11.4.

None of that changes a figure on your invoice. Shipping is flat and it is set by button count, so an order going out to 10701 and an order going three miles down the road pay the identical fee. Distance is on this page because people ask, not because it is priced.

Four people ordering the same buttons

The solo act. One name, one design, one size, and a table you carry in yourself. The 1.5 inch at $1.89 is the size that lets a modest total stretch into a real pile. Watch the 100 and 250 marks.

The four-piece splitting the bill. Everyone is paying a quarter and everyone wants to see the number before they agree to it. Give them $356.42 plus $19.99, or the 250 button version at $356.42 minus one button and $14.99 of postage, and let the group pick.

The act with someone running merch. If a friend handles the table, they will want the sizes to look deliberate rather than accidental. Two sizes at two prices, a small one people take and a 3 inch at $2.49 people buy, is a table that explains itself without anyone having to talk.

The band that just changed its artwork. Nothing carries over between orders and nothing needs to. The new file is priced on the same published bands as the old one, and both the band and the shipping tier are worked out fresh from the counts on that order.

Questions from Yonkers

Why does a Yonkers order for 251 of the 1.5 inch button come to $376.41? Because 251 buttons at the published per button rate of $1.42 each is $356.42, and an order between 251 and 500 buttons carries a flat $19.99 shipping fee. Added together that is $376.41 before tax, and nothing else is charged.

If my Yonkers order goes from 251 buttons up to 500, does the price per button drop? It does, in three steps. 251 of the 1.5 inch is $1.42 each and 500 of it is $1.32 each, because 500 reaches the 500 to 999 band. The rate steps at three counts and holds level between them. At 251 the 1.5 inch is $1.42 each. At 500 it is $1.32 each, because that count reaches the 500 to 999 band. One ladder is counted inside a size and the other across the whole order, which is why they do not step together.

Does ordering from Yonkers rather than somewhere closer to the shop cost more to ship? No. Shipping is a flat fee decided by how many buttons are on the order, not by how far the parcel travels. An order to Yonkers pays the same tier as an order to Mount Vernon or White Plains.

I am in Yonkers deciding between the 2.25 inch and the 3 inch button. What actually changes? Fifty cents a button, $1.99 against $2.49, and the amount of room your artwork gets. The shipping tiers are counted in buttons rather than inches, so choosing the larger size does not move you into a different postage band.

If we reorder the same design later from Yonkers, is it priced any differently from the first run? No. Each order is priced the same way from scratch: the published rate for each band for the size you pick, multiplied by the quantity on that order, plus the flat shipping tier that quantity falls into.
