1. Acceptance of Terms
By requesting a quotation, approving artwork, making payment, placing an order, collecting goods, accepting delivery or instructing SAMEDAY PRINT SOUTH AFRICA to proceed, the client confirms that they have read, understood and accepted these terms and conditions.
2. Custom-Made Products
All signage, printing, branding and display products are custom-made according to the client’s order, specifications and approved artwork. Custom-made products cannot be returned, exchanged or refunded once production has started.
3. No Cash Refunds
SAMEDAY PRINT SOUTH AFRICA does not offer cash refunds on approved, processed, printed, manufactured, delivered or collected custom signage orders. Any possible credit is at management’s discretion only and may be used only for a future order.
4. Quotation Validity
All quotations are valid only for the period stated on the quotation. Prices may change due to material costs, supplier increases, labour requirements, fuel costs or changes in the scope of work.
5. Payment Before Production
No order will be placed into production until the required payment or deposit has been received and cleared. Delays in payment may affect the production schedule and delivery date.
6. Proof of Payment
Proof of payment does not guarantee production until funds reflect in the company’s bank account or payment is verified by management.

9. Artwork Responsibility
The client is responsible for ensuring that artwork is correct before approval. This includes spelling, grammar, design layout, colours, images, logos, contact details, dimensions and final content.
10. Artwork Approval Is Final
Once artwork is approved, SAMEDAY PRINT SOUTH AFRICA will print or manufacture according to that approved artwork. The client accepts full responsibility for any errors approved in the artwork.
11. No Liability for Approved Errors
SAMEDAY PRINT SOUTH AFRICA will not be responsible for spelling errors, wrong numbers, incorrect logos, poor images, incorrect wording, incorrect colours or design issues that were approved by the client.

Where the client is supplying signage to their own customer, tender client or third party, the client must obtain approval from that customer before approving artwork with SAMEDAY PRINT SOUTH AFRICA.
13. Reseller Responsibility
If the client is a reseller, contractor, tender holder or middleman, they remain fully responsible for managing their own customer, artwork approvals, specifications and final expectations.

Colours may vary between screen display and final printed product. Screen colours, phone colours and computer colours are not a guaranteed match to printed output.

Materials may vary slightly depending on supplier availability, batch differences and manufacturing tolerances. Minor material variation does not qualify for refund or rejection.
18. Size Tolerance
Slight size variation may occur during printing, cutting, fabrication, trimming, welding, mounting or finishing. Reasonable production tolerance is accepted by the client.

Any production or delivery timeline given is an estimate and may be affected by workload, material availability, weather, supplier delays, power outages, transport delays or circumstances outside our control.
