Ordering and Quotations – The Important Stuff
Bag sizing
All our bags are hand made and hand sewn, please bear in mind that there will be a difference in size due to this and the relaxing of the material. Calico is more susceptible to inconsistencies and same bag styles can vary by up to 5%, please allow for this in your choice of bag.
Shrinkage
Calico is a natural fibre and is susceptible to shrinkage by as much as 10%. Please be aware of this before making your choice to wash as we will not replace or refund due to shrinkage.
Confirmation
We don’t consider an order confirmed unless it’s in writing, either by email, mail, or by receipt of a valid purchase order. A verbal order will not be considered confirmation.
Order Details
To receive a binding quotation, we must have all the details. These include final information regarding product, required print work, deadline, and delivery details. Our quotations are based on the accuracy of information we are given by the Buyer. Once the Buyer accepts our quotation, they must provide a Purchase Order or other written confirmation. The details of the quotation should be clearly indicated. The Seller will then provide an invoice. The Buyer now becomes liable for payment of the goods. If the Purchase Order is not consistent with the terms and details of the quotation, we are not required to accept them. After the Purchase Order has been received subsequent changes requested in writing by the Buyer may be accepted at the discretion of the Seller.
A confirmed order binds both Seller and Buyer under the terms of this contract.
