charge tax? - Yes. Our parent company, Kaeser & Blair, Inc.,

waive those charges. Resellers can supply us with a copy of your reseller
certificate to have the tax waived also. |

for requesting nonstandard imprint colors. |
| 7. What
about over / under runs? - These are additional production products
that exceed the quantity ordered, or vice versa for underruns. The
industry standard is 5%. This occurs due to the nature of the imprinting
process and equipment setups. All over runs are charged additionally.
Exact runs are possible but additional charges may apply. |
