I'd have to agree with you. As someone who works in print, I'm usually surprised by the prices the fulfillment services are offering. I actually am preparing a beta launch of a service to offer all of these same products (kind of creepy coincidence) because I do feel the market is lacking. We already have all of the equipment in place and running, along with fantastic discounts on bulk shipping, supplies, packaging etc. Our pricing will be about 25% of what is shown (give or take a small amount). If you are interested, I'd love to chat with you and see if we can work together.

+1 to interested. Michael's charging 350$ USD for a 30$ poster is absurd. This space needs change.
Get in touch with me at interest@printdropper.com if you'd like to speak further.
Will you do stuff besides prints? Specifically apparel?
It would likely come down to how much interest we have in the product. Because we already have everything in place for canvas, framed products, and posters, we will be starting with those as our production lines are already optimized for that. If we could make a good business case for apparel products then we would absolutely expand there, but it likely won't be for a bit.
What's the best way to reach you, rebel.
Feel free to send me an e-mail at interest@printdropper.com -- our site is coming soon.
Maybe when your service is up and running you can do a "show HN" post and one of your competitors can hijack that thread just like this.

Classy.
