Customize a Sample Product Process
Fill out the Get A Quote form for the product(s) you are interested in and be sure to include any of the items that you would like to customize. We will then create one to three samples with your changes incorporated into the designs. An account will be opened for you on the website and you will be able to view the samples online along with the price estimate for each.
If you like one or more of the designs, then you have 2 options:
1. We can send you a written price estimate and Service Agreement. To purchase the product(s), a deposit in the amount of 50% of the price estimate is due along with the signed contract. The balance will be due upon your final approval and before printing. Once the deposit is received, you will receive your choice of samples and we can begin to finalize the design. Additional samples are then sent as needed until you approve the design.
2. You can purchase samples before buying. The price is $5.00 for the first sample and $1.00 for each additional sample. If you decide to purchase the product(s), the total amount paid for the samples will be deducted from the total cost of your order. Along with the sample, you will receive a written price estimate and Service Agreement for each sample requested. If you wish to purchase a product(s), a deposit in the amount of 50% of the price estimate is due along with the signed contract. The balance will be due upon your final approval and before printing. Once the deposit is received, we can begin to finalize the design. Additional samples are then sent as needed until you approve the design.
Initial prices are estimates as the process is designed to customize the products to your specifications. During the design phase, you can make changes to the products, which may have an impact on the final price. As a reminder, materials, size, color, images, paper and production time all make a difference in the price.
We can work together through email and/or over the phone. When needed, photos of the changes are sent via email.
Once we make all of the necessary changes, you will receive a final product(s) to approve before production. If changes are requested after you have given final approval, you will be charged for any materials that need to be reprinted and/or reordered.
If you receive your product(s) and they do not mirror what you approved, then Party Essentials will re-produce the product(s) at no charge to you.
