SanMar PSST
We’re excited to announce that J6 Designs has been approved for the SanMar PSST program! This means you can now drop-ship items directly to us without needing to “fill in” $200 worth of apparel to qualify for free shipping. There are additional benefits to the PSST program, which are outlined in the attached flyers.
With this program, there are a few updates to our broker policies:
- We will handle precounts only for items shipped via the PSST program. Drop-shipping through other vendors or SanMar (without PSST) or dropping off items at the lobby will continue under the old policy, without precounts.
- If garments are shipped through the PSST program without placing an order directly with us, a $5 picking fee will apply. This fee will be waived for items sent as samples for jobs we are printing — just email us, and we’ll set the items aside for you.
We recognize this will be a learning process for all of us and appreciate your patience as we adapt to the new system. This page will serve as the main reference for updates, as details may evolve over time.
Information directly from J6 designs:
We asked kindly that in the PO section you fill in the SanMar match exact the PO you use when you send the order.
We would like the an abbreviation of what department it belongs too. “SP” = Screen Printing , “Emb” = Embroidery, “Fin” = Finishing/Fulfillment, “HT” = Heat transfer/DTF . If the job has multiple department embellishment please use a combination like “PONAME – SP EMB HT” for a job that screen printing and embroidery and Heat Transfer.
Just a reminder, the cutoff time is now 2:00 PM PST. In the past, we all would had to wait until just before 3:00 PM to close orders in order to maximize shipments. With the PSST program, that is no longer necessary. Please place orders as soon as possible—whether it’s for 1 piece or 1,000 pieces, it doesn’t make a difference.
Information directly from SanMar:
When they place orders on SanMar.com, they need to follow these steps each time or their orders will not ship via PSST:
- They must select your address from the saved address list on the left side of the screen of the checkout process. They can add an attention line but must not alter any other part of the address.
- After selecting your address and possibly adding an attention line, they’ll want to click on “Confirm Address” so that the system will then add the PSST default ship via under Shipping Method. Let them know that they won’t see a freight estimate or an ETA…that’s normal for PSST shipping. They do not want to select any other option.
- Click on “Proceed To Payment”
If they do those steps correctly, the order should show no freight costs on the next screen. Let them know if they see a freight estimate (even “Freight Saving”) they’ll want to stop right there and reach out to you so you can inform me that that something is not working properly.
If they submit their orders via email, their emailed PO must have your address listed in the correct format:
4189 Santa Ana St
Ste F
Ontario, CA 91761-1557
The address must be exactly as listed above…the only thing they can vary on is the zip code. If they don’t want to include the 4-digit extension, that’s OK. The rest must be exactly as listed…including the “Ste F” listed on the 2nd address line by itself.
Also, I strongly recommend that they list the ship via on their PO’s as “PSST” to be safe. Even though the address as listed above will automatically trigger PSST as the default ship via, if the customer lists anything else, the rep keying the order might override the PSST ship via in error.
