4. Orders and Order Confirmation

Customers must ensure that all information submitted when placing an order is accurate and complete. This includes product selection, quantity, personalisation details, spelling, delivery address, contact details and any special instructions. An order confirmation acknowledges receipt of your order. We will notify you if there is a problem with availability, payment or fulfilment. We reserve the right to decline or cancel an order where reasonably necessary, including where fraud is suspected, a product is unavailable or a material pricing or technical error has occurred. Any payment received for a cancelled order will be refunded as required by applicable law.

5. Personalised and Custom-Made Products

Some products are created or customised according to the customer's specifications. Customers are responsible for checking the accuracy of all names, wording, dates, images, colours and other personalisation details submitted. Where a design proof is provided, customers should review and approve it before production begins. Once production has started, changes or cancellations may not be possible without additional costs. Any cancellation charges must be lawful and reasonable. Personalised products are not automatically excluded from refunds or returns.

All prices are displayed in South African rand (ZAR), unless otherwise stated. Prices, promotions and product availability may change without prior notice.

Customers must complete payment using an available payment method before an order proceeds to fulfilment, unless an alternative arrangement has been agreed upon. Any delivery fees or additional charges will be displayed or communicated before checkout is completed. We do not accept fraudulent payment confirmations or unauthorised payment transactions.

7. Production and Processing Times

Processing times vary depending on product availability, order volume, customisation requirements and production methods. Made-to-order products may require additional time for design, printing, assembly and quality checks. Estimated processing and delivery periods are provided as a guide unless a specific date has been expressly agreed upon. If a significant delay occurs, we will make reasonable efforts to inform affected customers and address the matter in accordance with applicable law.
