After placement of order, a proforma invoice shall be issued from factory.

Our factory doesn't accept at anyway customer to deduct from final payment such kind of payments rised. Factory can't be responsible if loading delays or failures or failure to deliver on time (date) requested by customer cause of not available trucks, road or port strikes, closed roads or boarders or ports, weather conditions that blocked transportation means (trucks, boats, trains, airplanes e. t. c.).

If cancelation arrives to factory after printings have been done, factory will deduct to remaining refundable amount the cost of printing and will refund the rest. In case the cost of paperboard and printing exceed the customer deposit for the relevant project, factory will ask for additional amount up to the level that those expenses will be covered.Changes are not possible to be done if code item has been already produced (under certain circumstances).
