Hi folks. I need advice. I want to add some mugs to my shop but I am unsure if I should do the colour or white ones.

These cost me about 15-18 (including shipping) so I have to charge the customer around 25 if I want to make a profit. My prints are 25 without shipping, so maybe this is OK

Sadly, I cannot offer both options unless people buy from me directly
