All shipping estimates are for one (1) standard location. Parcels may be bulk packed or individual at SignsBannersOnline discretion and charged by either weight or cubic measurement whichever is the greater. At any stage if we are charged or incur extra costs above allowed for shipping these costs plus any administration fees are payable by the customer. The value set by any shipping estimate is not accepted as final. If you have multiple points of delivery (eg. Split orders) please proceed through the cart pages as 'No pay online' and our team members will formally quote multiple shipping destinations.

REGION OR AREA NOT SERVICED If your region or area is not serviced, continue with order allocating a nearby location for pickup or extended arrangement by you.

When two or more items are ordered, the package size may vary depending on logistics, destination, fragility and/or cubic measurements and other. The Shipping Estimator can not determine when multiple products are or are not packed together and you should not rely upon any order being 'packed together'.
Package sizes are determined by allowing a reasonable protective value around the item. Eg. Cartons may include 5mm extra packaging size around the sign to protect edges etc. Boxes may be standard flute whilst express bags may also be used. For package sizes, please refer to the size guide on each product detail page.
IF you intend to 'bulk pack' different orders together this is not possible. ONLY one order per order is packed. This means clientX is not packed with ClientY.

The most readily available information on currency exchange rates is based on "interbank exchange rates". Interbank exchange rates are established in the course of currency trading among a global network of over 1,000 banks, and are not available through consumer or retail channels. Consumers may use these rates as a reference, but should not expect to use interbank rates in transactions that involve currency conversion. To obtain actual retail rates, contact your local financial institution or currency exchange, or check the rate displayed in your PayPal transaction.
Displaying Conversion Rates - PayPal provide information on transactions that include a currency conversion. The currency conversion rate will be displayed each time you:
Send a payment in a non-local currency
Accept and automatically convert a payment to your primary currency
Withdraw funds in a non-local currency to your local bank account
Transfer funds between currency balances
In addition, you can go to 'History' to review the currency conversion calculations from previous transactions.
There is no currency conversion for transactions where you: Send a payment using a funding source in the same currency. Receive a payment in a currency for which you hold a balance (you do not need to have funds in the currency balance). Withdraw funds in a local currency from your PayPal account to your local bank account.
For further information or policy changes see PayPal website.
PAYMENT PROCESS- (FINALIZE) Payments are held in a neutral fund until you release them. You can order now and finalize payment later. Ten day buyer protection (included free) Your payment is held in protection for up-to 10 days before being released from a neutral bank account.

Font Replace/Substitution We do not manually 'search for' or 'replace fonts' if they do not exist on our systems. PSD, AI, CDR etc may attempt to replace fonts if fonts in your files are missing, however WE DO NOT ACCEPT responsibility for any font replace/substitution. When font substitution is being used to find a replacement for an unavailable character, it can lead to inconsistent visual appearance as part of a word or sentence is displayed in one font and another part is displayed in the substituted font. A method to work around this problem is to display the entire word or paragraph in the substituted font. Nevertheless, font substitution may be critical to scripts not well supported by a large font inventory having the required Unicode range. You should rasterize all elements of your print files and submitted flattened design files only.
