⦁ How do you take payment?
I accept cash & check (local only) and credit cards via PayPal for those who want to use a credit card/bank cards that contain the Visa /Amex/MasterCard logo.
Please be sure to send full payment on all orders under $75.00 OR 50% non-refundable deposit for all orders over $75.00 with your materials. Once your order is complete, I will send a request for final payment via PayPal email. Once I receive the final payment for my work (including such things as shipping, proof reading, postage, rush fees, etc), your order will be shipped.
⦁ What if I need additional items addressed after I receive my order?
I am more than happy to address additional items at the same price per envelope plus shipping.
⦁ Do you charge for return shipping?
Yes, there will be a charge for shipping depending on how heavy your package is. Your package will be sent via USPS or FedEX to ensure timely delivery. Typically USPS Priority or FedEX d (3-5 days) will be charged $15.00-$20.00.
⦁ Do I need to send extra envelopes?
Yes. It is recommended to send 10-15% additional envelopes per every 75 invitations (7-14 envelopes is desired). This allows for errors, corrections, or unexpected additions. This is the very reason I may keep a few envelopes after your order has been mailed. Calligraphy takes much time and dedication and I want everything to look its best!
⦁ Do you do rush orders?
Yes. Rush jobs are considered any job needed in less than two weeks. Please contact me at mail@tawnytsang.net and tell me the details of your occasion, the quantity, and how soon it is needed, so I may send you a quote.
⦁ What methods of shipping do you use?
I will ship all completed orders using FedEX or USPS Priority Mail and provide a tracking number and can request a confirmation receipt. Shipping and additional postage charges are paid by the customer and added to the final bill.
⦁ What if I find errors in my order?
If I am in error, it will be rewritten at no cost to you. If it is a typo/error in your error, it will be rewritten in a timely manner and charged at the same rate you paid per envelope. I will make every effort to confirm spellings in question. This is why I ask that you order/send extra envelopes for this very unexpected reason.
⦁ What color ink do you provide?
Although black is standard and most elegant, other colors may be available. Please let me know what you have in mind and I will make every attempt to accommodate your wishes. I also can write on black envelopes with white labels and possibly in gold OR silver, dependent on stock.
