1 PLACING YOUR ORDER

1.1 Once an order has been placed we will send you an invoice to confirm we have received payment. You are required to make certain all details are correct as per your requirements within 24 hours. We will print garments based on the information provided on the invoice document and we cannot be held responsible for any discrepancies between the invoice and your requirements after this document has been confirmed.

1.3 Returning incorrect garments to the supplier will incur a restocking fee.

1.4 The final quantity of garments printed is subject to a +/- 10% tolerance. This is due to unavoidable issues that can occur during printing which we cannot foresee. If you require an exact amount of garments please take this into account when choosing your quantities to order.

1.5 If you are supplying garments you are responsible for communicating any special technical requirements for these (e.g: whether the garment will discharge, fabric content, measurements). Failure to do this before the order is confirmed could result in delays. We recommend that you send an extra 5% of the quantity as spares.

Additional runs after the first 20 all-over prints will also require an additional half price setup fee.
