Ordering Information

There will be no cancellation charges if the order is cancelled before the artwork is started. There will be a $47.00 (net) charge if the order is cancelled after the art has been started, but prior to production. An order cannot be cancelled if production has been started.

Copy or color changes may be used to combine lots for quantity savings. Add $40.00 (E) per each change. Copy and color changes can not be combined on the same order. Changes must be in multiples of the minimum quantity shown for the item ordered. If more than 5 color or copy changes are needed for your order, contact your customer service representative to review your own artwork, follow the complete Art Guidelines.

Any order calling for quantities between standard catalog quantities will be priced at the lower quantity price. Example: An order of 800 will be priced at the 500 quantity price.

Consecutive numbering and barcoding is available on items other than those shown in the catalog. Call or write for pricing and styles. We do not guarantee that there will not be any missing numbers.

Due to the difficulty of manufacturing to exact quantity requirements, a shipment of 5% over or under the quantity ordered will constitute a complete order and will be billed accordingly.   

If your order requires a quantity that is less than what is found in the catalog, please call or write for pricing.

The client is responsible for including required funding declarations for political advertising. Each state has different laws regarding political advertising and appropriate copy must be supplied with your order.

We will, for an additional charge, produce an order in less than normal production time. Charges and availability vary depending on current workload, item involved, complexity of art, and production. We also offer several Kwik-Ship items. See Kwik-Ship Items for more details.
