TERMS & CONDITIONS

Please note that by placing an order with MAGVA Design + Letterpress you are agreeing to our Terms & Conditions

Our promise
All our letterpress prints are printed the old-fashioned way. At MAGVA Design + Letterpress we use an antique manually operated Chandler & Price dating from 1885, a Vandercook Roller Series Proof Press dating from 1929, and a Heidelberg Windmill dating from 1969. These antique presses coupled with carefully selected cotton or sustainable papers help to create a letterpress print with character and impression. We take great pride in our customer's satisfaction and therefore take the utmost of care when producing our goods for them. Attention to detail and quality are our hallmarks and we promise to ensure that all goods delivered to our customers meet our standards of excellence.
 
Letterpress ~ A hands-on craft
The nature of letterpress is such that subtle variations in inking, colour, impression and position will occur during a print run. These all combine to give each piece it's own character and uniqueness. We promise to check each piece prior to dispatch to ensure that it meets our standards.
 
Please ensure that you are satisfied that letterpress printing is the right choice for you. Once an order is submitted for personalised stationery we are unable to change/cancel the order.
 

CUSTOM & BESPOKE DESIGNS

Depending on the complexity of your project the lead time can vary from twenty-one to forty days after the final signed proof has been approved and returned.

Bespoke designs for Day of Stationery are charged at our hourly rate of €25 unless otherwise agreed. If your bespoke stationery requires handmade envelopes, hand stitching, folding and/or deckle edging, please allow up to 40 working days for completion of orders after final proof has been returned.

Making a booking ~ Your print slot
Once we have checked availability and confirmed your printing schedule a non-refundable payment of €100 will secure your calendar date (print slot) for when your stationery will be printed. This €100 will be deducted from the order total. To ensure that deadlines are met and ensure that you receive your stationery on time, it is essential for the client to provide MAGVA Design + Letterpress with the necessary information, details and confirm the final design approval in order to complete the design and print process. MAGVA Design + Letterpress will not be held responsible for the failure of being unable to complete or deliver a project or print your stationery within an appropriate time frame due to failure on the clients part. Completion thereafter will depend on availability within our print schedule.
 
Confirming your stationery
Once the design/s have been proofed and approved a 50% non-refundable payment of the total cost is due. The remaining balance is due prior to delivery. Payments can be made by electronic transfer, bank draft, cheque or postal order. Once the payment has been cleared the goods will be dispatched.

Proof Reading
Proofreading is the client's responsibility. MAGVA Design + Letterpress will provide a digital proof copy of the work for client approval prior to printing. Once the client is satisfied they are required to date and sign the proof and return same (a reply by email to a digital proof is also accepted).
 
We strongly recommend that the proof copy is viewed by more than one individual to ensure its accuracy for content details, spelling, grammar etc…
 
MAGVA Design + Letterpress will not be held responsible for any mistakes/errors that go unnoticed after the final proofs have been signed, such as spelling, grammar, details etc…In approving the final proof, the client accepts’s responsibility for any errors that may be noticed at a later date.

We will not accept returns or demand for refund for unnoticed errors after final proofs have been approved.

If errors are discovered after the final proof approval and the print run has started, a full reprint charge will be incurred.
 
Due to the unique process of letterpress printing, the cost of printing plates and the setup involved, it is not possible to create one of prints for proofing purposes. All proofs are done and completed via the supplied digital artwork. This finalised and proofed artwork by the client is then used to create the printing plate.
 
Returns & Replacements
If you believe your items to be faulty please advise us within 48 hours of receiving the goods and return the faulty goods to MAGVA Design + Letterpress in its original packaging within 7 days. Once we receive the returned goods and are satisfied that fault(s) is valid and not due to the unique character of a letterpress piece, MAGVA Design + Letterpress will either replace the goods or issue a refund for the purchase price.

Letterpress is a hands-on craft and each print will have it’s own unique character, for this reason, we will not honour claims for a refund or reprint. MAGVA Design + Letterpress will not accept returns on personalised items due to a change of mind.

All shipping costs for returns and deliveries of exchanges (excluding faulty goods) will be at the customer's expense.
 
Cancellation by the client
If you decide to cancel your order prior to any part of it going to print, you agree to forfeit your deposit or any payments made. Cancellations after your order has gone to print will not be accepted.
