FAQ

Common Turnaround Questions

Does Same Business Day always mean today?
No. If the order becomes ready at or after 12:00 PM Eastern, on a weekend, or on an observed production holiday, Same Business Day moves to the next eligible business day.
When does production time begin?
When the order is complete and all applicable artwork, proof and payment requirements have been satisfied.
Is Estimated Completion the delivery date?
No. It is the estimated production completion date. Pickup, delivery or shipping time is additional.
