Mazel Tov Market Policies

THE FOLLOWING IS VERY IMPORTANT INFORMATION, PLEASE READ.

ALL ORDERS PLACED ONLINE ARE CUSTOM ORDERS. CUSTOM MADE ITEMS ARE NOT ABLE TO BE RETURNED, EXCHANGED OR REFUNDED. ALL SALES ARE FINAL.

 

RETURNS and EXCHANGES:

Since all orders are custom-made, there can be no returns unless the item(s) ordered is defective or the wrong item(s) is received.

If a problem does arise with your order, please contact us at orders@MazelTovMarket.com or 914.488.4327 within 72 hours of receiving your order. Please do not send any items back to us without calling first. Unauthorized returns may be refused and sent back to the customer. Please do not alter the item(s) received in any way. Items cannot be returned more than two weeks after receipt for any reason.

 

PRINT/DECORATION PLACEMENT: Please view our Standard Print Placement Guideline Form for placementdetails. There is no way to efficiently measure a distance from the collar on each shirt as each garment is loaded. If you request a shirt that has the design 2 down from the collar, we will use that as a guide and do our best to make sure all shirts hit that target. However, all shirts will not hit exactly 2. They may be off as much as an inch in any direction. This will not be considered a misprint and we will not reprint or refund these shirts. Anything over an inch and a half from your desired placement will be considered for reprint. If no placement is requested we will use our opinion and standard specs to place design.

 

If PMS colors are not requested then all printing will be done using our standard colors per format (Screen-printing, DTG, Transfer, etc.…). If no Printing Process is requestedwe will use our opinion and standard specs in the Production Process. The Type of Printing (Screen-printing, DTG, Transfer, etc.…) will be determined at the start of production and we will let you know prior to production (Printing) the process which is being used.

 

TURNAROUND TIME: The turnaround time on your order starts when you’ve paid in full and we have all information required to complete your order (all artwork, products, sizes, details, etc.) Delay in receipt of any of this info can/will result in production delays. Our Standard turnaround time is 10 business day – 2 weeks unless otherwise stated. Complex orders/add-ons may increase this time. Delays in the approval of mock up can/will result in production delays. Any order changes after the order is placed will also cause production delays and may have costs associated with it. Mazel Tov Market (MTM) will not be responsible for delays resulting from any of the above and may not make your deadline. Therefore, make sure you know exactly want you want and need before finalizing your order. If you have a specific deadline for your order, it is very important that you let us know when you place your order. A rush fee may apply. If you do not notify us of a due date until after your order has been placed and pushed through our system, we may not be able to accommodate your request. Any circumstances out of the control of Mazel Tov Market (MTM) (weather delays, shipping errors by suppliers, out of stock merchandise, Acts of God, etc.) may also require more time, and costs (Restocking fees etc…) and are not factored into the initial turnaround time estimate. Mazel Tov Market (MTM) is not responsible for these delays and Costs.

 

We do offer RUSH service if needed. Rush Fees are appliedas follows:

5-9 Business days: 20% of total order

3-4 Business days: 30% of total order

1-2 Business days: 40% of total order

If needed we may have to expedite shipping of your items to get them to our shop in time to meet your deadline. If so, you will be responsible for those shipping fees.

 

ORDER CHANGES: Once your order is placed we begin working on it right away. Every person in our shop will be involved in your order at some point. Most of the time involved in your order is in the Pre-Production phase. Therefore, you may be subject to a $50 change fee in addition to the added cost involved such as (restocking fees, shipping expenses, screen fees, etc.) if you make any change to your order once it has been placed. If you have approved your proof(s) and screens have been burned for your order you will also be subject to a $35 screen fee per screen. Even if you paid a rush fee, any changes to your order will result in delays and the deadline cannot be guaranteed.

 

PROOFING: All artwork is to be approved by digital proof through email. Artwork must be checked for spelling, color, sizes ordered, placement/size of artwork, and overall accuracy by the customer. It is very important to look over every detail of your order, as this is exactly how it will be produced. We will not accept responsibility for corrections not implemented and/or requested after artwork approval. Any modification requested after customer approval will result in production delays and additional expenses for which the client will be invoiced for accordingly. Any delays in the approval process longer than 24 hours after proof was sent can/will result in production delays. Mazel Tov Market (MTM) does try and catch mistakes ahead of time, however we will not be responsible if you proof is approved with errors. We may however offer to redo the job at a discounted rate in the event your order was approved with errors.

 

ARTWORK: You can modify one of our stock designs or have our art department create something for you. Our customers have come to rely on our design team to bring their ideas to life. We do most artwork at no charge providing you are placing an order with us. If you do not place an order with us the cost for creating artwork is $150.00 with $25.00 per additional changes. However, if you are providing art and it needs recreated or if we have to spend a considerable amount of time on it, it will be billed at $45 per hour. We will let you know in advance if this is the case and give you an estimate of total time/cost. If you are providing artwork please make sure it is in the following formats (PDF, EPS, or .ai) The design should be sized to desired printed specs. All files must be 300 DPI or Vector format.

If you want your artwork to be a specific size you must specify what size you want when you place your order or when you approve your artwork. That said, The colors and sizing of emailed art for your approval is not exact size. We size our artwork based on the item(s) ordered, the print location(s) and the design(s) being printed

Common Mistakes and Misconceptions about Web Images

JPG’S and GIF’S are the 2 main types of files found on web pages. Because of the size of these images they are not usable for screen printing purposes. While the image may appear large on a computer monitor in reality they are very small and once enlarged become pixilated and unusable. Our art staff can use these images as a reference for re-drawing the image but art charges may apply based on the complexity of the final artwork.

Guidelines and Information for Submission of Electronic Artwork Files

ORDER BY PHONE: Call us at 914.488.4327 to speak with a sales representative. 

 

SHIPPING: Many of our vendors offer us free shipping which we pass on to you. However, orders under $200 from any one vendor that does not offer free shipping, then the shipping costs will be charged to you.

 

INK CHANGE FEES: Your order is priced in part based on the number of colors to be printed. At times our customers request to have the colors printed to be changedmid run for various reasons. Many companies treat these as an entire separate order costing the customer a fortune. We simply charge an ink change fee of $30 per color.

 

ADD-ON POLICY: Here at Mazel Tov Market (MTM) we do not set minimums on the number of shirts you order. We do not charge set-up fees like most companies either. That being said the set up process for Screen Printing is very time consuming and involved. There is a huge cost in tearing down jobs and putting them back up again over and over. At times customers do need to add on more shirts to an order after they have already picked up. In the event, the policy is as follows…. 

 

You have 1 week to add on to any order from the date of pick up/delivery. The add-on order must be a minimum of 12 pieces and will be charged at the same price per piece rate as the original order. For quantities less than 12 pieces you will be charged a set up fee of $30 per screen plus $25shipping per vendor that the items come from. Items will be charged at the same price per piece rate as the original order. Any add-on attempt after the 1 week period will be treated like a new order and will be priced as such. Previous order volumes will not be considered in the pricing of said “new order”. We always recommend to make sure your final numbers are correct and to order a little extra if needed (5%) to avoid adding on to a job. Add-ons will be completed in our normal turnaround time. We can rush if needed but rush fee may apply.

 

UNDER-RUNS & SPOILAGE: Due to the nature of customizing apparel it is very common for a shirt or two to be missing from your order. Shirts can get damaged during the customization process or we may get shorted by the vendor. In order to keep prices down, we cannot order extra shirts. Mazel Tov Market (MTM) will not be responsible for under-runs or spoilage up to 10% per design.(Spoilage must be more than 10% per design for reprint) Please keep this in mind when ordering (it is never a bad idea to order extras). We always do our best to get you what you ordered in full. We will refund you the cost of any items shorted from your order but will not process a reprint for less than 10% of your order.

 

GARMENT DISCLAIMER: Mazel Tov Market (MTM) is not responsible for manufacturer defects such as color inconsistencies, stitching errors, mislabeled garments, loose/inconsistent stitching, and or garment defects (holes, ripped seams, etc.). We try our hardest to inspect the garments as we print them, but we cannot guarantee each garment. We are not the manufacturers of these garments so we cannot ensure their construction. We highly recommend ordering 5% extra of each size if an exact count is important. If you find any of these garment defects please let us know and we will work with the manufacturer to attempt to get you a refund. We will not refund or exchange any garment due to fit.

 

QUALITY ASSURANCE: We try and check every garment as it’s completed, but there are times when some mistakes will make it out the door.

Upon receiving your order, you will sign off on a pick up sheet / email stating that everything is satisfactory and approved. Your signature (email “APPROVED” and taking of the goods constitutes your acceptance of said goods. NOTE: Any print that goes over a seam can result in imperfections. Mazel Tov Market (MTM) will not accept responsibility for imperfections due to printing seams or non-flat surfaces. We use the same set of screens per design. That means the image printed will stay consistent in size regardless of the apparel sizes. If you would like different image sizes on different apparel sizes you must let us know ahead of time. Each set of screens will be counted as a separate order and priced accordingly unless otherwise stated. Please keep the max print size in mind when printing on girls sizes and youth sizes.
