What moves the price
For tea cup, the drivers are capacity/oz, paper grade, coated vs uncoated, printed vs plain, dispenser compatibility, wall construction, size/oz, paper weight — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
For mid-range custom-printed paper tea cups, price is mainly driven by capacity/oz, paper weight, single- vs double-wall construction, coated vs uncoated stock, and print coverage/color count. Real supplier listings show steep drops at higher MOQs, with low-volume custom cups commonly in the $0.10-$0.35 range and high-volume disposable paper cups reaching roughly $0.01-$0.05 depending on spec and MOQ. The most realistic sourcing routes are Chinese export marketplaces and wholesale paper-cup manufacturers; US-facing distributors and landed-equivalent import pricing tend to sit above FOB Asia quotes once freight, duty, and spoilage are included.
