Amazon fees on one POD sale
Print-on-demand orders on Amazon are usually merchant-fulfilled, so the main cost is the referral fee on the price plus shipping.
A $20.01 shirt crosses into the 17% tier, so pricing at $19.99 can keep more money than pricing a little higher. Try both in the receipt.

Questions
How do Amazon's clothing referral tiers work?
Clothing and accessories pay 5% when the total price is $15 or less, 10% from $15 to $20, and 17% above $20. Most other categories pay 15%, with a $0.30 minimum.
Are FBA fees included?
No. POD sellers usually fulfil orders themselves through their print supplier (FBM), so no FBA fulfilment or storage fee applies.
