Terms and Conditions

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF USE CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEBSITE.

All users of this site agree that access to and use of this site is subject to the following terms and conditions and other applicable law. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, please do not use this site.

Production Schedule

Production time starts the first working day after artwork is approved for printing, not including shipping. Normal turnaround is three to ten working days unless requested otherwise. Some orders with less than a three working day turnaround will have a rush charge; see below for specifications.

Rush Orders

As of 4-13-12, a fee of $200 is applied to all orders that require printing of a booth (pop up, hybrid, all fabric booths, etc...) in 3 days or less and must ship Priority or Standard Overnight Service . Please do not ask us to RUSH and then request ground shipping.

For banner stands, the fee will be 20% of the total amount of your order if you require your order to be completed in 3 days or less. The maximum amount of banner stands that can be printed in this amount of time is a total of 6 (six). Orders of this nature take a minimum of 1 (one) day for vinyl banners and a minimum of 2 (two) days for fabric banner stands. If you require a 2 sided vinyl print, the minimum production time is 5 (five) business days. Rush fees are nonrefundable. For those rush jobs where DisplayStar has only one chance to fully produce the graphics, the graphics will not be guaranteed. Should your graphics have a defect we will happily reprint the defective graphic/panel after your show at 50% of the standard price.

Printing Graphics

We appreciate your cooperation by giving us as much time as possible to produce your graphics. In the event your project finishes early it will ship via the scheduled method. Please do not ask us to RUSH and then request ground shipping.

Once your graphics have been received by our Graphics Department, we will review your graphic files to ensure that your artwork meets the requirements outlined in our specifications to produce the highest quality product. If any modifications or a change to the artwork needs to be made, you will be notified, and you will have the opportunity to submit new artwork with the necessary changes. If you prefer to have our Graphics Department make the necessary changes, you will be billed at a rate of $100.00 per hour.

Once our Graphics Department has reviewed and approved your artwork, you will receive a PDF proof via email. You will receive the proof within 1 business day of submitting acceptable artwork to us. You must send back an approval e-mail before your job is moved into production. Production time starts the first working day after approval email is received and acknowledged. PLEASE NOTE: An e-proof is only to ensure proper art elements are there and size is correct. It does not ensure proper resolution or color accuracy.

Once your approval has been received, the printing process will take 3- 10 days; depending on the project. Please note that these production lead times are from the date of approval, not from the date that the artwork was received. If you have purchased graphics that are less than our standard lead-time, then rush fees will apply. If you purchased graphics with ground shipping and less than standard lead-time one of our sales associates will contact you.

Shipping

Any Changes to shipping address must be received in writing to [email protected] prior to shipment. Shipping is FOB Beaverton, OR. Orders requiring fulfillment must be quoted. Fulfillment charges will apply to all orders with 10 or more shipping addresses.

PHYSICAL PROOF SERVICE - Your colors verified

Our physical proof service is perfect for your important projects because it allows you to see what the finished product will look like before your graphic is sent to the production department. DisplayStar cannot guarantee color accuracy or image resolution unless a printed proof is requested.

Color Matching

We will match up to two colors at no charge using your PMS codes, provided that you supplied a file that can easily be modified. We print digitally in CMYK and use PMS colors as a guide; therefore the colors are not exact. We highly recommend that you order a printed proof, in the event that you do not, we will match as close as possible to the PMS colors proved, but are not responsible for the colors not printed to your liking. The customer will be responsible for the overnight freight on printed proofs. You’re submitted files should be fully approved and print ready; DisplayStar is not liable for the accuracy of any “predesigned artwork” submitted by client.

  • • When reordering, colors MAY be slightly different then original order.
  • • If files are submitted and do not meet our bleed specifications, DisplayStar reserves the right to add a border to the file(s).
  • • If files are submitted in RGB mode, you are authorizing DisplayStar to convert the file(s) to CMYK mode. (converting files from RGB to CMYK will cause color shifting)
  • • We will only accept files emailed to DisplayStar.com or uploaded through our website.
