Overage Policy, Read Before You Order
Every order runs with a 10% overage or underage. That is standard for custom printed goods and it applies to every quantity on this page. Overages are billed at the end of the project at your per-piece price, along with any shipping cost adjustments. Your checkout total covers the base run; the final invoice reconciles the actual count that ships.
