A typical US business buyer pays a median of $0.38 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.13 at volume, on a typical 14-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.

What moves the price
For gs1 label, the drivers are dimensions, adhesive type, printer compatibility, material stock — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published wholesale barcode/label pricing is usually driven by whether you are buying *just the code/ID* or a *printed label* with stock, adhesive, and printer-compatibility built in. Real supplier quotes show steep volume breaks for label production, with bulk smart-label pricing from Cubit and barcode-label pricing from OrderBarcodes/EZUPC both falling as quantities rise, while GS1 registration/licensing fees are a separate cost layer. For a mid-range custom-printed GS1 label, the most realistic routes are trade label printers, barcode-label resellers, or imported factory-direct runs; lead times commonly sit around 1–3 weeks for custom runs, but exact published lead times were not consistently available in the sources.
