We prefer not to back order products but will do so upon your request.

 

NUMBERED PRODUCTS

Our numbered products are a much more complex manufacturing item than simple printing items. Because of this there are additional charges that can be incurred by the customer if they want specific numbering sequences or special numbering patterns. All the added charges are reflected upon the extra time and extra work needed to accomplishment the customer goals.

Some things like guaranteed "no number skips" are extremely labor intensive and not cost effective. We need to communicate to the customer in advance our numbering policy, especially on skips. This policy is listed online as part of our ordering terms.

1. NO NUMBER SKIPS: Because manufacturing involves many steps such as printing, numbering, cutting, perforating, wrapping, occasionally a sheet will become damaged and cause a skip in the number sequence. It's not cost effective to go back and reprint if a skip occurs. A guarantee of no skips requires an additional up-charge of 50% of the job price up to 10,000 pieces and 25% there after. We do not guarantee no skipped numbers without the additional up charge. Most jobs do not have skips and in our experience they are unlikely, but possible. However if a sheet jams in the manufacturing process it likely will cause 3 or 6 non-sequential skipped numbers as we run most products 6-up on a large sheet for efficiency.

2. NON STANDARD NUMBERS: Our numbers start at 1 and continue up without a break to the completion on the job. If the customer starts with any number other than 1 there is a $5.00 minimum non-standard number charge per number position. If an item is printed multiples on a sheet the charge is per position. For example a 6-up run is a $30.00 charge.

3. START AND STOPS: A "start and stop" means the numbering machine must be manually stopped and restarted to accommodate a specific non-consecutive series. For example numbering 1 to 1000 is a standard sequence. But having 10 sets numbered 1 to 100 x 10 has 9 additional start and stops. The first start is built into the price, but the additional start and stops are $3.00 for the first 10 and $2.00 there after. So 5,000 bid cards numbered 1 to 100 is 50 sets. 9 x $3.00 plus 40 x $2.00 or a total of $107.00 for the additional "start and stop" charge. There is no additional charge for numbering in 1000 increments regardless of quantity ordered.

4. NON STANDARD FONT: We have two standard type fonts for numbers: Helvetica and Roman. Any other type font required is $10.00 if we have it in our system. If we have to buy the font it's a pass thru cost for the font and/or royalty fee.

5. COLOR CHANGES: Most of our numbering product is run digitally and the color or black number are the same price. Color changes within a single order are subject to a color change of $25.00 per color change. For crash numbered carbon-less forms the color red is standard and any other color is $25.00 color change.

6. ADDITIONAL NUMBER POSITIONS: Numbering in additional locations on products are subject to custom quote determined by the amount of time necessary to set up and the speed upon which the job will print.
