RETURNS:return to top of page
As a general rule, we do not accept returns. All sales are considered custom printed and are not returnable for any reason with few exceptions. Once the item has been printed the item is no longer returnable to us or our suppliers. The Sunshine Imprint Co. makes every effort in the artwork approval and proof phase of the order process to weed out defects, mis-spellings, omissions, etc. in the artwork itself. Item defects such as holes or manufacturing defects will be replaced with the same item. No changes will be allowed as to the color of the item or size or image printed. The Sunshine Imprint Co. inspects every item before it is packed and shipped. The defective item will have to be returned and reviewed by The Sunshine Imprint Co. before any replacement or credit will be made. Many of our customers are retail outlets and we can not accept returns that have been soiled, stained, snaged, ripped, cut or other wise made defective once the item has been displayed on the retail store floor.

The Sunshine Imprint Co.offers the first hour of artwork free. This Free hour assumes that an order will be placed and the free hour will be credited to that order. If a customer has a change of mind and cancels the order then there is no free hour of artwork and the customer must pay for any artwork time at the current rate.

The Sunshine Imprint Co. regrets any errors, including spelling errors or omissions, that may get through to production undetected, but cannot be held responsible for errors if the work is printed per customer's O.K. or if changes are communicated verbally. The Sunshine Imprint Co. shall not be responsible for errors if the customer has not ordered or has refused to accept proofs or has failed to return paper proofs with indication of changes or has instructed The Sunshine Imprint Co. verbally to proceed without submission of paper proofs.

Press proofs are printed on White or Black squares of fabric. Any changes, corrections or lost press time due to customer's change of mind or delay will be charged for at current rates. Because of differences in garments, inks and other conditions between proofing and production press room operations, a reasonable variation in color between color proofs and the completed job shall constitute acceptable delivery.

PRODUCTION SCHEDULES return to top of page:

GENERAL WARRANTY: return to top of page
The Sunshine Imprint Co.shall disclaim any and all express or implied warranties of merchandisability or warranty of fitness for a particular purpose. Although the The Sunshine Imprint Co. uses quality materials, due to the wide variation in laundering conditions and detergents, The Sunshine Imprint Co. does not guarantee against the imprint cracking, flaking, fading or shrinkage of garments during laundering. The inks used in the imprint process are heat cured. High drier temperatures will cause the ink to stick to the drier drum surfaces and then redeposit all over all items in the drier. To reduce this risk, The Sunshine Imprint Co. suggests that all imprinted items be turned inside out before laundering and drying. DO NOT DRY CLEAN imprinted items. DO NOT IRON imprinted items.

DYE LOT return to top of page
Due to the practice of batch processing knitted goods when they are dyed, The Sunshine Imprint Co. cannot guarantee consistency of color on garments from dye lot to dye lot or from one order to the next or from one size to the next.
