Before you send

Good questions,

short answers.

One sentence is enough to get a quote. We'll ask one short question if something important is missing, like your product's weight.

Give us the product's size or send one to our studio. We'll size the box with 3 mm of play so it doesn't rattle.

Your dieline and estimate arrive within one working day. Converter bids follow within 24 hours of you saying yes.

No. You only pay when you approve a proof, or if you order the $39 sample.

Yes. Invite them and they'll bid alongside ours, with the same proof and QC process.

We have converters in 31 countries, so most orders are made near you. Freight, duties and VAT are in the quote.
