Acceptance of Orders

A quotation or tender addressed to Purchaser from Supplier does not constitute an offer to sell, and in no circumstances shall any contract arise unless and until the Purchaser submits an order to Supplier, and Supplier issues a written acknowledgment of the order to the Purchaser.

Custom Cancellation

All custom orders are considered firm once the Purchaser's order has been acknowledged by the Supplier or if the order from the Supplier was contingent on an approved proof, once the order is acknowledged and the proof approved.
