Order process

The advertising of products on our website constitutes an “invitation to treat”; and your order for products constitutes a contractual offer.  No contract will come into force between you and ourselves unless and until we accept your order in accordance with the procedure detailed below.

In order to enter into a contract to purchase products from us, you will need to take the following steps:  Choose your product and selected your choice of quantity, paper finish and any additional finishing requirements. Add the products you wish to purchase to your shopping cart, and then proceed to the checkout; (ii) if you are a new customer, you must then create an account with us and log in; if you are an existing customer, you must enter your login details; (iii) once you are logged in, you must select your preferred method of delivery and confirm your order and your consent to these conditions of sale; (iv) you will be transferred to our secure payment website, which will handle your payment; (v) we will then send you an initial acknowledgment; and (vi) once we have checked whether we are able to meet your order, we will either send you an order confirmation (at which point your order will become a binding contract) or we will confirm by email that we are unable to meet your order.

We will not file a copy of these conditions of sale specifically in relation to your order.  We may update the version of these conditions of sale on the website from time to time, and we do not guarantee that the version you have agreed to will remain accessible.  We therefore recommend that you download, print and retain a copy of these conditions of sale for your records.

The only language in which we provide these conditions of sale is English.

Before you place your order, you will have the opportunity of identifying whether you have made any input errors by reviewing your details before the payment pages.  You may correct those input errors before placing your order by clicking the ‘back’ button on the page. We will print your artwork as it is supplied by yourself, whether uploaded, submitted using our online design tools, or as approved by you if created by us. We do not proof-read artwork and cannot not be held liable for any mistakes in the artwork and subsequent print.

Delivery

Every effort will be made to deliver on time, but any delivery day specified is a ‘best endeavour’ and no liability is accepted for any loss arising from delay or error in the delivery of the goods. We will do our very best to ensure that an order is dispatched on the day specified for overnight next day delivery, however we cannot give an exact delivery time guarantee, or assure that the delivery will be made at any indicated time, as we have to rely on third-party delivery company / courier. There is a high probability that the delivery times calculated on the website are maintained if orders are received by specified time and are based on customers supplying ‘print ready’ artwork. The number of working days specified for delivery at time of order commence once the customer has signed of their proof by email. Any delays in artwork not being supplied ‘Print Ready’, or delays in returning approval of your proof by email may lead to your order missing the desired delivery slot, especially for orders placed on our ‘3-5 day’ service.

Folder King shall not be liable for any losses, costs, damages or expenses incurred by the customer or any other person or company arising directly or indirectly out of any failure to meet any estimated delivery date. We will not be under any liability whatsoever in the event that we are prevented or delayed from supplying or making delivery of any Goods by any reason or cause beyond our control, this includes any delay which may occur through international customs for items being delivered overseas.

General terms 

We will treat all your personal information that we collect in connection with your order in accordance with the terms of our privacy policy; use of our website will be subject to our website terms of use.

Contracts under these conditions of sale may only be varied by an instrument in writing signed by both you and us.  We may revise these conditions of sale from time-to-time, but such revisions will not affect the terms of any contracts which we have entered into with you.

If any provision of these conditions of sale is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect, and such invalid or unenforceable provisions or portion thereof will be deemed omitted.

No waiver of any provision of these conditions of sale, whether by conduct or otherwise, in any one or more instances, will be deemed to be, or be construed as, a further or continuing waiver of that provision or any other provision of these conditions of sale.

You may not assign, charge,  sub-contract or otherwise transfer any of your rights or obligations arising under these conditions of sale.   Any attempt by you to do so will be null and void.  We may assign, charge, sub-contract or otherwise transfer any of our rights or obligations arising under these conditions of sale, at any time – providing such action does not serve to reduce the guarantees benefiting you under these conditions of sale.

Each contract under these conditions of sale is made for the benefit of the parties to it and is not intended to benefit, or be enforceable by, any other person. The right of the parties to terminate, rescind, or agree any amendment, variation, waiver or settlement under such contracts is not subject to the consent of any person who is not a party to the relevant contract.

Returns and Refunds 

We will not accept any liability for errors, grammar, spelling or omissions made on artwork approved or supplied by you. If the order arrives damaged, or defected, it is necessary to inform us about this fact within 10 days from delivery.

We reserve a right to ask for samples of damaged or defected goods before we offer a re-print or refund. On the sight of samples we will decide on how to proceed depending on the fault. If we are at fault we will offer a re-print, or partial refund or full refund depending on the error.

Claims received later than 10 days after delivery day might be rejected.

All sales are final since we customise each order according to your request. We give no refunds or credit but if we verify that we made an error, we will re-print your order.

If you cancel a contract and are entitled to a refund, we will usually refund any money received from you using the same method originally used by you to pay for your purchase. We will process the refund due to you as soon as possible and, in any event, within 30 days of the day we received your valid notice of cancellation.

Product Specification

We have a policy of continuous product development and reserve the right to amend the specifications of any goods or products without prior notice in relation to future sales. Products supplied may differ as a consequence of multi-standard colour systems, notably the international screen based colour system of RGB and the print colour system of CMYK. We endeavour to display and describe as accurately as possible the printed colours of our products that appear on the website. However we cannot guarantee that your monitor’s display of any colour will accurately reflect the colour of the product delivered.

Quantity Variation

We shall be deemed to have fulfilled our contract by delivery of a quantity within 5% plus or minus of the quantity of printed goods ordered and you will be charged at the contract rate for the quantity delivered.

Folds

A degree of ‘cracking’ along the spine of scored and creased and card products is normal particularly where a solid colour is printed along the fold. It is strongly advised that a laminate is used to minimise this effect, although a small amount of cracking may still be visible. We will not be liable for any cracking that occurs along scored folds, particularly if the card is unlaminated.

Force Majeure 

We will not be held responsible for failure or delay in the carrying out of our obligations under the contract arising from any cause outside our reasonable control or by inability to procure materials or articles except at higher prices due to any such cause and in such circumstances we shall be entitled by notice to terminate the contract in whole or in part without incurring any liability whatsoever to you.

Liability

Liability for any loss or damage suffered by you in respect of the goods shall be limited to the contract value of the goods, except in such cases which cause death, injury or damage to personal property. We are not responsible for any financial loss suffered by you, including loss of earnings or expenses incurred by you.
