What moves the price
For plastic scissors, the drivers are material, capacity, orientation, finish, branding method, strap width, attachment hardware, length — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Quoted wholesale pricing for low-end plastic or plastic-handle scissors is most often driven by blade/hardware content, handle material, and MOQ rather than branding, with Alibaba and Made-in-China showing the clearest bulk tiers around $0.08-$0.20 at higher volumes. Mid-range custom-printed office/plastic scissors are realistically sourced either from China trade suppliers or US wholesalers reselling imported stock, but US-facing channels tend to post higher unit prices and often bundle by case rather than true factory-bulk tiers.
