New Service Delivery Times
6 June 2021 | Admin
As many of you may already know, we 3 partners in this business are artists with many different commitments. When the Covid pandemic took hold, our other commitments went into lockdown giving us more time to devote to providing a speedy service to our thermofax customers. We know, from many of the comments that we have received, how grateful you have been for that service commitment.
Now we are returning to a new normal, and all our lives are picking up again, we need to devote some time to the other areas of our artistic lives and employment. We have looked at how the orders are progressing and decided that we will be more efficient in our provision if we limit our print runs to a few days in the week, rather than every day no matter how many orders come in. This will also give us the time we need to devote to the other areas and endeavours.
Essentially, we are simply returning to our original aim to turn orders around within 72 hours, rather than the 24 hours that we set ourselves during the pandemic.
We will be doing print and post runs ONLY on Mondays. Wednesdays and Fridays from now on, with a regular review of the situation so that we are sure that we can keep up our usual standards of good service as life returns to normal. To give us a fighting chance of getting orders into the post on the same day as the print run, we have a cut off time of 10.30am.
Please note though: if you have an order which is very urgent, please call us on 07498 680112, and discuss the situation to see if it is possible to help you out with a speedy turn around. This may not always be possible depending on our own scheduled commitments, but we will always try and do our best on that odd occasion when you really need something quickly.
Changes to Next Day Delivery
19 January 2021 | Admin
In response to changes in both our own working practices, and our local Post Office drop off times, we can no longer offer a Next Day Delivery service for orders that come in later than 10.30am.
We try very hard to fulfil all orders that come in as quickly as possible, but we also try to create your screens in the most economical way possible to ensure our prices remain competitive. This requires us to combine screens on templates which require careful management.
With the increase of traffic in our local post office that COVID has created, we need to get our parcels there in plenty of time to enable them to process them by the time the van driver comes to pick up.
The combination of these things means that in order to keep gettting everyone's orders out in a timely fashion, any special requirements such as Guaranteed Next Day Delivery must be placed early enough for us to plan them as a priority in to our print run.
Postage & Prices
1 January 2021 | Admin
Happy New Year Everyone!
When you are browsing through our website you will notice that our prices have changed. There are some variations which more accurately reflect the actual costs of the different sizes of the screens - which now include our lovely Compact screen with a printable area of 12cm x 18cm.
Our big announcement is that for all UK customers, our prices are now fully inclusive of postage!
So no more additional charges at checkout (unless you are living outside the UK or require other postage options such as a guaranteed next day delivery). Coupled with our new Paypal Checkout which bypasses a lot of the details that take so much time at checkout, it is easier and faster than ever to place your order giving you more time to browse through our design library!
